The second major championship of the 2026 season is officially here, and the stage is set for an unforgettable week at Aronimink Golf Club in Philadelphia. With the Wanamaker Trophy on the line, the world's best golfers are ready to tee it up, and the first-round pairings promise plenty of fireworks from the opening shot.

The morning wave delivers a blockbuster trio starting at 8:40 a.m. ET: Rory McIlroy, fresh off his Masters victory and chasing his third Wanamaker Trophy, will play alongside Jon Rahm and Jordan Spieth. Spieth, still seeking that elusive career grand slam, adds even more intrigue to this group as they tee off from the 10th hole.

Just ahead of them at 8:29 a.m., two former PGA champions—Xander Schauffele and Brooks Koepka—join forces with Tyrrell Hatton for a group loaded with major pedigree. And at 8:18 a.m., fans can catch Bryson DeChambeau, Ludvig Åberg, and Rickie Fowler, a mix of power and precision that could light up the leaderboard early.

The afternoon session is equally stacked. Reigning champion Scottie Scheffler headlines the 2:05 p.m. group alongside Matt Fitzpatrick and Justin Rose, while the hottest player on tour, Cameron Young, tees off at 1:54 p.m. with Keegan Bradley and Justin Thomas. Other can't-miss afternoon pairings include Viktor Hovland, Collin Morikawa, and Shane Lowry at 1:32 p.m., followed by Chris Gotterup, Robert MacIntyre, and Tommy Fleetwood at 1:43 p.m.

From early morning stars to late-afternoon contenders, Thursday's first round at Aronimink is packed with storylines—and the perfect excuse to gear up in your best major-week apparel.
