Tee Times Announced for the British Open
This week the golf world turns to Muirfield in Scotland, sight of the British Open and the season’s third major. Here is a look at some of the tee times and pairings for the first two rounds Thursday and Friday.
Dustin Johnson, Nicolas Colsaerts, Bubba Watson (3:44am ET Thursday and 8:45am ET Friday)- All three are big hitters off the tee, all ranking in the top five in average yardage off the tee. Loxahatchee River resident Dustin Johnson comes in with two top 10 finishes in his last two British Open appearances including a runner up finish in 2011.
Ernie Els, Justin Rose, Brandt Snedeker (4:11am ET Thursday and 9:12am ET Friday)- Els is not just the defending British Open champion, he is defending Muirfield champion. The Jupiter resident won the Claret Jug both last year and the last time that Muirfield hosted the event in 2002. With Justin Rose winning last month’s U.S. Open, Snedeker is the lone player in the pairing without a major championship.

Rory Mcllroy, Hideki Matsuyama, Phil Mickelson (4:44am ET Thursday and 9:45am ET Friday)- Mickelson finally got over the hump and one in the UK this past weekend when he took down the Scottish Open. A win at the British would put him closer to the career grand slam. For Mcllroy, he is still in search of his first win of the 2013 season. The best finish at the British Open for the Palm Beach Gardens resident is a tie for third in 2010.
Lee Westwood, Charl Schwartzel, Sergio Garcia (9:01am ET Thursday and 4:00am ET Friday)- The biggest surprise out of this group is that Schwartzel is the only major winner (the Old Palm resident won the 2011 Masters). Since making his British Open debut in 1995, Westwood has four top-10 finishes including back-to-back top-5s in 2009 and 2010.
Luke Donald, Matt Kuchar, Adam Scott (9:12am ET Thursday and 4:11am ET on Friday)- Donald only has one top-10 finish at The Open, when the Bears Club resident finished in a tie for eighth last year. He will be paired with Matt Kuchar who already two wins to his name this year including the Memorial and Adam Scott who lost a four shot lead with four holes to go at last year’s Open.
Tiger Woods, Graeme McDowell, Louis Oosthuizen (9:45am ET Thursday and 4:44am Friday)- Woods, who has missed the last few weeks with a left elbow injury has said that he has recovered and is ready to go. The Jupiter Island resident, who has already won on the tour four times this year, will look to end his major drought at 16. He will be paired with 2010 British Open winner Loius Oosthuizen and Graeme McDowell, fresh off his win at the French Open.

Recapping the Weekend in Golf
Since his second place finish at the Puerto Rico Open in early March, it wasn’t so much of an if but when Jordan Spieth would get his first career PGA Tour win.

Having already earned special temporary member status and his tour card for his five top-10s and over $1 million in earnings, the only thing left was to get a win and get a permanent spot on the tour.
He has had several close calls during the first half of the season too. He was in the hunt at both the Crowne Plaza Invitational and the AT&T National where he finished seventh and sixth respectively. He didn’t let the near misses get him down though and the perseverance paid off on Sunday when he survived a five hole playoff against defending champion Zach Johnson and David Hearn.
Not only did the win make him an official PGA Tour member, making him eligible for the Fed Ex Cup, it also earned him a spot at this week’s British Open and next year’s Masters. Speith can also say that he has done something that not even the likes of Tiger Woods, Jack Nicklaus, or any of the other greats have done. At 19, Speith became only the second teenager ever to win on the PGA Tour and the first since Ralph Guldahl took the Santa Monica Open in 1931.
Phil Wins For First Time Across The Pond
Starting the day two shots back, Phil Mickelson did something on Sunday that he had yet to do in his career: win an event in the United Kingdom.

Mickelson shot a three under 69 on Sunday and then birdied the playoff hole to take the Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open. It was his first win on any European soil since he won a European Challenge Tour event in Paris in 1993.
It was also a successful Scottish Open debut for Brooks Koepka. The Wellington resident who is playing this year on the European Tour shot a four day total of 10-under par, good enough for a tie for 12th.
All three (Micckelson, Koepka, and Speith) will join the rest of the top golfers in the world including Jupiter Island resident Tiger Woods and Palm Beach Gardens resident Rory Mcllroy at this week’s British Open which starts Thursday at Muirfield.

91 golfers in total carded under par rounds on Thursday including Villegas on the par 71 course. Included in that group of golfers under par are Tequesta resident Keegan Bradley and Stuart resident Justin Peters. Both Bradley and Peters carded 2-under 69s on Thursday.

Included in that large group under par is world number eight Phil Mickelson. One of four Americans in the field and preparing for next week’s British Open, Mickelson shot an opening round of 6-under 66 to sit just two shots back. Mickelson opened his round with a bogey on the first hole before settling in.
Brooks Koepka, who is playing in his first ever Scottish Open this week, shot a 2-under 70 and currently sits right on the projected cut line. The Wellington resident carded seven birdies and five bogies.
Ernie Els will be looking to make a run at the cut in round two after an opening round of 72. The defending British Open champion and Jupiter resident was never able to get anything going in the first round as he carded four birdies and four bogeys. Also sitting at even par with Els is Michael Thompson. Thompson got his first ever win on the PGA Tour at this year’s Honda Classic at PGA National.
