The Heritage 2011: Tee Times And Pairings For Thursday

The 2011 edition of The Heritage tees off early Thursday morning, when John Daly, Jesper Parnevik and Kevin Na get going at 7:20 a.m. 

Full tee times and TV listings are available here.

Unlike last year when only five of the world's top twenty players participated, Thursday's opening round will include a strong line-up of rivals vying to win the tartan jacket awarded to the winner on Sunday.

Defending champion Jim Furyk will tee off at 1:10 p.m. alongside Jason Day and 10th-ranked Matt Kuchar.

Two-time Heritage champion Boo Weekley tees off at 8:50 a.m while World number 3, Luke Donald is set to begin at 8:20 a.m.

Other top contenders include British world number five Graeme McDowell and South African Ernie Els, who both tee off at 8:50 a.m.

Some wonder if this will be the final Heritage as the event has no title sponsor and has no immediate suitors. If so, it looks like it's going to go out with a bang.
