The first round of the 2017 Masters Tournament tees off on Thursday morning, with the rest of the pairings getting started on Augusta National through the middle of the afternoon.

There are a couple of live streaming options available for both the Thursday and Friday rounds, through both WatchESPN and Masters.com, starting in the morning and afternoon. Check out the Masters website schedule below, which features a lot of unique options, depending on what you want to watch. All of the action here gets going on Thursday morning, which means you could technically avoid work and watch golf all day, but don’t tell your boss we gave you that idea.

Mother Nature hasn’t been very kind to Augusta National so far this week, with the Monday and Wednesday practice rounds — including the annual par-3 contest — being suspended due to severe weather in the area. The Weather Channel’s forecast for Wednesday evening calls for rain, and Thursday featuring cloudy skies, with winds from 10 to 20 miles per hour, so some of the strategies for certain holes and greens will have to take that into account.
Below are tee times for some of the notable pairings, and the full Thursday and Friday tee time list can be found here.
- 9:28 a.m.: Adam Scott, Kevin Kisner, and Andy Sullivan
- 10:01 a.m.: Fred Couples, Paul Casey, and Kevin Na
- 10:34 a.m.: Jordan Spieth, Martin Kaymer, and Matthew Fitzpatrick
- 10:45 a.m.: Phil Mickelson, Rafael Cabrera-Bello, and Si Woo Kim
- 10:56 a.m.: Brandt Snedeker, Justin Rose, and Jason Day
