2020 PGA Championship: Tee Times, TV Info, How To Live Stream Early Coverage

Major tournament golf returns to our lives Thursday for the first time in more than a year.

The 2020 PGA Championship kicks off a wild stretch of must-see golf that also includes the PGA Tour playoffs, U.S. Open and the Masters over the span of the next three months, as the sport tries to salvage the marquee events of its schedule amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

The world’s best players tee off Thursday morning at TPC Harding Park in San Francisco. An unsurprisingly star-studded field is headlined by Brooks Koepka, who is looking to win his third straight PGA Championship.

Koepka’s defense begins Thursday morning at 11:11 a.m. ET when he tees off with Shane Lowry and Gary Woodland.
