Viewer’s guide: Rocket Mortgage Classic tee times, TV schedule and purse

Rickie Fowler headlines the field at the inaugural Rocket Mortgage Classic on Thursday at Detroit Golf Club. It’s the first of two new back-to-back events on the PGA Tour, followed by next week’s 3M Open in the Twin Cities.

Fowler tees off on the 10th hole at 7:35 a.m. on Thursday alongside Kevin Kisner and Charles Howell III. Dustin Johnson is the top-ranked player in the field and also has the best odds to win (6/1). Johnson tees off No. 1 at 1:05 p.m. Thursday with Patrick Reed and Chez Reavie.

Other marquee groupings for the first two rounds are Bubba Watson, Billy Horschel and Hideki Matsuyama (7:25 a.m. Thursday), and Gary Woodland, Keith Mitchell and Brandt Snedeker (12:55 p.m. Thursday). This is Woodland’s first start since winning the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach two weeks ago.
