PGA Championship 2026 tee times: Full R3 pairings and UK and Ireland start times for third round at Aronimink Golf Club | Golf News

Groupings and tee times for the third round of the 108th PGA Championship, held at Aronimink Golf Club in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania.

Defending champion Scottie Scheffler was the pre-tournament favourite to defend his crown and register a fifth major title in as many seasons, with the world No 1 sitting two shots off behind halfway leaders Maverick McNealy and Alex Smalley after a frustrating second-round 71.

Rory McIlroy charged back into contention with an impressive Friday fightback, carding a brilliant bogey-free 67 which has left him primed to challenge for a second major win of the season.

McIlroy tees off on Saturday at 4pm UK time alongside Brooks Koepka, while Scheffler starts at 6.40pm alongside Spain’s David Puig and Cameron Young is paired with Ryder Cup teammate Justin Thomas at 7pm UK time.

European favourites Justin Rose and Shane Lowry squeezed past the cut to make the third round on three and four-over respectively. Englishman Rose starts at 2.15pm UK time, while Ireland’s Lowry begins at 1.21pm UK time.
