Truist Championship: How to watch featured groups, tee times, weather delays, more

PGA TOUR Highlights | Round 1 | Truist Championship
A stacked field returns to Quail Hollow for the Truist Championship, the sixth Signature Event this season.
Due to heavy rain, the first round of the Truist Championship was delayed in the morning, then suspended in the evening due to inclement weather. Matt McCarty holds the lead with an 8-under 63.
The first round will resume Friday at 10:30 a.m. ET with 20 players left to complete the round. The second round will begin as scheduled, featuring groups of three off Nos. 1 and 10 from 11 a.m.-1:01 p.m ET.
Here’s a look at the notable groupings for this week’s Truist Championship, which will be featured on PGA TOUR Live and Golf Channel coverage during the first two rounds of the competition.
Three European Ryder Cup teammates will take on this group. The combined winners of four of the last seven TOUR events, McIlroy and Fitzpatrick link up for the first two rounds this week at Quail Hollow. McIlroy will make his first start since he put the green jacket back on his shoulders, while Fitzpatrick will be looking for his third straight win after capturing his beloved RBC Heritage and the Zurich Classic of New Orleans with his brother Alex. McIlroy, a four-time winner at Quail Hollow, could pick no better place to return to the fold.
Young comes hot off a dominant wire-to-wire performance at another sprawling layout at the Cadillac Championship, looking to continue his form through the Truist and enter the PGA Championship in the best form of his career in pursuit of his first major championship. He will lineup alongside his successful Ryder Cup Four-ball partner Thomas, who enters off a solid T23 finish at Cadillac, his second-best mark this season.
Schauffele returns to Quail Hollow for his first start since the RBC Heritage, looking to continue a torrid stretch of seven straight top-25 finishes, including four top 10s. He finished T28 in last year’s PGA Championship at Quail Hollow, but did notch a solo-second here in 2024. .
