One of the biggest names teeing it up this week is World No. 6 Bryson DeChambeau. The final round at Torrey Pines didn’t turn out the way DeChambeau had hoped, but he’s been one of the hottest players on the planet lately.

DeChambeau will look to get back to his winning ways at TPC River Highlands. He tees off at 7:45 a.m. ET on Thursday alongside Patrick Reed and Stewart Cink. They’ll be joined in the field by defending champion Dustin Johnson, Brooks Koepka and more.
