Thursday morning, the 113th United States Open takes center stage on the sports world as the best players in the world take to East Course of the Merion Golf Club in Ardmore, Pennsylvania. The U.S. Open is considered by many as the hardest golf tournament to win in the world and Tiger Woods, who has three U.S. Open titles but none since 2008, is listed by oddsmakers are the favorite to win the tournament. The 2013 US Open Tee Times are listed below in their entirety.
Woods has 14 major tournament titles to his credit at this point in his career, but he hasn't won since the U.S. Open in 2008, when it was played at Torrey Pines. Woods will tee off at 1:14 p.m. EST Thursday, playing with both Rory McIlroy and Adam Scott. They are the top three players in the world and will certainly be the feature group on Thursday and Friday. Opening up the tournament will be the group at 6:45 a.m.
The weather is supposed to be one of the big factors in this tournament. Woods is the overwhelming favorite to win this tournament at better than 6/1 odds while Phil Mickelson (16/1), Graeme McDowell (16/1), Matt Kuchar (18/1) and McIlroy make up the first group of players behind Woods in regards to the odds.
US Open at Merion Facts — This will be the fifth U.S. Open played at Merion's East Course, which opened in 1912. The past champions are: Olin Dutra in 1934, Ben Hogan in 1950, Lee Trevino in 1971, and David Graham in 1981. The course has also hosted the U.S. Amateur six times: Bobby Jones won at Merion in 1924 and 1930, the latter completed his grand slam. He also competed here in his and Merion's first U.S. Amateur in 1916; Jones was a quarterfinalist at age 14 and the champion was Chick Evans, who also won the U.S. Open in 1916, the first to win both titles in the same year.
