Tiger Woods hasn’t won since 2013, but he’s playing a course he’s plenty familiar with this week.
Woods, whose last event was the Players Championship (T11), headlines the field for this week’s Jack Nicklaus-hosted Memorial Tournament in Dublin, Ohio, a tournament Woods has won five times in his 15 starts there. He’s never missed a cut and has eight top 10s. His last start at the Memorial came in 2015, when he made the cut but was derailed by a disastrous 85 on Saturday.
Woods is grouped with Justin Rose and Jason Dufner for the first two rounds. They tee off at 8:26 a.m. ET on the 10th tee on Thursday, and their Friday start time off the 1st tee is 1:16 p.m. Dufner is the defending Memorial champion after beating Rickie Fowler and Anirban Lahiri by three last year, and Rose is coming off a win at the Fort Worth Invitational on Sunday.
Other marquee groups include: Patrick Reed, Justin Thomas and Fowler (8:15 a.m. Thursday), Marc Leishman, Matt Kuchar and Louis Oosthuizen (8:37 a.m. Thursday), Jason Day, Rory McIlroy and Dustin Johnson (1:05 p.m. Thursday), and Bubba Watson, Phil Mickelson and Jordan Spieth (1:16 p.m. Thursday).
