By WSBTV.com News Staff
AUGUSTA, Ga. — The first set of tee times and groupings for the 2024 Masters Tournament have been updated.
Heavy rain and winds forced Augusta National to delay the start times for Round 1 on Thursday. The first group was originally scheduled to tee off at 8 a.m. Instead, they will tee off at 10:30 a.m.
Channel 2 sports director Zach Klein has been reporting from Augusta National throughout the week, on Channel 2 Action News at 5:00 p.m.
Jon Rahm looks to defend his 2023 Masters title. There have been only three repeat champions in the tournament’s history: Jack Nicklaus in 1965 and 1966, Nick Faldo in 1989 and 1990 and Tiger Woods in 2001 and 2002.
Meanwhile, 2022 champion Scottie Scheffler is the favorite to win. The world’s No. 1 won the Arnold Palmer Invitational and the Players Championship and finished second at the Houston Open.
