The PGA Tour is back this week for the final major tournament of the year with the 2023 Open Championship at Royal Liverpool Golf Club in Merseyside, England. The first round of the 151st Open Championship will get underway bright and early shortly after 1:30 a.m. ET.
Last year’s winner Cameron Smith returns to defend the Claret Jug, but most of the attention will be on Rory McIlroy after he gained momentum last week by coming away with the Scottish Open win.
McIlroy and fellow major championships Justin Rose and World No. 3 Jon Rahm will get their opening rounds underway at 9:59 a.m. ET.
Smith, meanwhile, begins his round at 4:58 a.m. ET alongside Xander Schauffele, and Wyndham Clark.
You can watch Thursday’s first-round action online throughout the day on the Peacock app beginning at 1:30 a.m. ET and running through 4:00 p.m. ET, while the action will also air on the USA Network from 4:00 a.m. ET to 3:00 p.m. ET.
