There are some huge matches to look forward to this week at Austin Country Club
McIlroy vs Poulter - WGC-Match Play Groups Announced
The WGC-Match Play returns this week after being cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic last year.
The ever-familiar Austin Country Club once again hosts and we've got some superb matched to look forward to.
Rory McIlroy will take on his Ryder Cup partner Ian Poulter on day one on Wednesday in what is sure to be a must-see game.
We're also very excited for the all-European group 8, featuring Tyrrell Hatton, Lee Westwood, Sergio Garcia and Matt Wallace.
Westwood plays Garcia on Wednesday, with Hatton taking on Wallace.
World No.1 Dustin Johnson enters the event as the top seed for the fourth consecutive year as he looks to add to win the title for the second time after defeating Jon Rahm in the 2017 final.
There are 16 groups made up of tier 1, 2, 3 and 4 seeded players, with a round-robin format taking place where each player will play each other in each group.
The last 16 and quarter final matches take place on Saturday, with Sunday hosting the semi finals and final.
