World No.3 Rory McIlroy will tee off alongside his fellow Northern Irishman and good friend, Tom McKibbin during round one and two of the Amgen Irish Open at Royal County Down this week.
The pair will be joined by Swede, Vincent Norrman at the iconic course in Newcastle, Northern Ireland as they begin their quest to lift the trophy on the first tee at 1:00pm local time (8:00am ET) on Thursday.
The following day, McIlroy and co. will begin their second round from the 10th tee at 8:00am local time (3:00am ET), hoping that their late-early draw aids them with some kind weather conditions.
Just 20 minutes before them on Thursday, another marquee group - which features a former champion of this event - will get underway in front of home fans.
Shane Lowry, Robert MacIntyre, and Ryan Fox are set to start from the first tee at 12:40pm local time, with Lowry hoping to lay the foundations for a repeat of his 2009 success as an amateur. Lowry, MacIntyre, and Fox have an 7:40am tee time on Friday as they begin round two from the 10th.

Among several other notable groups at Royal County Down, 2016 PGA Champion Jimmy Walker has been grouped with Edoardo Molinari and Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen. They will begin on the first at 1:20pm local time on Thursday before going off from the 10th at 8:20am on Friday.
