PGA Championship 2012: Tee Times And Groupings For Thursday

Golf won't be a part of the Olympics until 2016, but the fourth major of the year in the sport will steal a little bit of the 2012 Olympics shine from Thursday until Sunday, during which the 2012 PGA Championship will be contested at Kiawah Island.

Tiger Woods will look for his first major since 2008 after near-misses at The Masters and the British Open. He'll be paired with up-and-comers Keegan Bradley and Martin Kaymer, the 2011 and 2010 winners of the PGA Championship, respectively, over the first two days.

The event's traditional threesome of the year's first three major winners produces the high-wattage grouping of 2012 Masters champ Bubba Watson, 2012 U.S. Open champion Webb Simpson and 2012 British Open winner Ernie Els for the first two rounds.

And in the group tailor-made for golf sadists, Hunter Mahan, Adam Scott and Sergio Garcia will play as a threesome for the first 36 holes.
