Rory McIlroy will look to put his latest major near miss behind him when he tees off in the Open at Royal Troon on Thursday morning.

The four-time major winner, who faltered over the final few holes in last month's US Open at Pinehurst to allow Bryson DeChambeau to win, will continue his quest for a first major victory in a decade at 10.09am alongside Ryder Cup team-mate Tyrrell Hatton and American Max Homa.

McIlroy won the last of his four majors at the 2014 US PGA Championship, a month after lifting the Claret Jug at Royal Liverpool and since then his record at the Open has brought five top-six finishes in seven outings.

Defending champion Brian Harman goes out in a group with Viktor Hovland and Sahith Theegala immediately ahead of McIlroy at 9.58am, while world number one Scottie Scheffler is out at 3.10pm, with 2017 Open champion Jordan Spieth and fellow American Cameron Young.

Shane Lowry, the winner of the 2019 Open, has been grouped with 2022 major champions Cameron Smith and Matt Fitzpatrick. That trio will have a late start and get underway at 2:59pm.

Tom McKibbin will be one of the earliest risers. He's grouped with Calum Scott and Alexander Noren and they will be the second group out at 6:46am.

Padraig Harrington, winner of the Open in consecutive years in 2007 and 2008 also has a later start. He tees off at 2:15pm alongside Davis Thompson and Matthew Jordan.

2011 winner Darren Clarke starts at 1:58pm with American JT Poston and South Africa's Dean Burmester.

Irish amateur Liam Nolan is part of one of the final groups to start. He tees off at 4:05pm alongside fellow amateur Jaime Montojo and Australia's Kazuma Kobori.

Fifteen-time major winner Tiger Woods is off at 2.37pm on Thursday alongside US PGA champion Xander Schauffele and Patrick Cantlay.

The victorious Ryder Cup trio of Jon Rahm, Tommy Fleetwood and home favourite Robert MacIntyre - winner of the Scottish Open on Sunday - begin at 9.36am, with another of Europe's heroes Ludvig Aberg in the next group at 9.47am with DeChambeau and Tom Kim.

The first shot of the 152nd Championship will be hit by Justin Leonard, winner of the Claret Jug at Troon in in 1997, at 6.35am after being paired with another Troon champion, Todd Hamilton and qualifier Jack McDonald, whose grandad is an honorary member at the club.
