Rory McIlroy grouped with Rickie Fowler, C.T. Pan at Harbour Town

HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. – One of the best fields ever assembled at the RBC Heritage has predictably produced four of the most compelling featured groups for the first two rounds.

For Thursday’s opening round Brooks Koepka, Patrick Reed and last week’s winner Daniel Berger will tee off No. 10 at 7:29 a.m. (ET) followed by world No. 1 Rory McIlroy, defending Heritage champion C.T. Pan and Rickie Fowler at 7:40 a.m.
