Masters 2020 tee times: Shane Lowry grouped with Tiger Woods

Rory McIlroy paired with Dustin Johnson and Patrick Cantlay for first two rounds

Rory McIlroy, once again bidding to complete the final leg of a career Grand Slam, will begin his US Masters campaign alongside Dustin Johnson and Patrick Cantlay while Shane Lowry will play alongside defending champion Tiger Woods and US amateur winner Andy Ogletree in the first two rounds.

Graeme McDowell has been paired with Si Woo Kim and Nate Lashley.

McIlroy will tee off at 5pm (Irish time) on Thursday with an earlier tee-time of 12.55pm on Friday. Lowry and Woods will tee off at 12.55pm on Thursday starting from the 10th tee due to the lack of daylight.

Mallow’s James Sugrue, winner of last year’s British Amateur when it was held at Pormarnock, has been grouped with former champion Jose Maria Olazabal and American player Andrew Putnam for the opening two rounds and is using a local caddie, Tack Fulqhum, for his debut appearance in the Masters.
