The end of the second round of the 2025 PGA Championship saw some shocking shifts on the leaderboard. Jhonattan Vegas maintained his emphatic lead as he now sits two strokes clear of the field. Max Homa and Si Woo Kim scored 7-under 64 to jump up more than 50 places on the leaderboard. They are not placed at T5 and T2, respectively. On the other end, Rory McIlroy and defending champion Xander Schauffele barely scraped through with a +1 after two rounds. While the unexpected is happening at Quail Hollow, the tee times for the penultimate round of the major have also been drastically affected. Let’s take a look at when the favorites will tee off hours before the action begins on Saturday.

PGA Championship 2025: Round 3 tee times

The second round of the 2025 PGA Championship saw plenty of action from all 156 golfers on the field. Jordan Spieth started the day with an outstanding eagle on the par-5 10th hole. His amazing approach shot landed the ball 8 feet and 3 inches away from the cup. The 3-time major winner sank it to keep his hopes of a Grand Slam alive. Hideki Matsuyama was seen driving on the practice course as he looked ever so pumped up and energized. Rickie Fowler also looked good to make it to the next round mid-way through the day. Unfortunately, all of them dropped points in the last few moments at Quail Hollow to miss the cut.

Those who did make it, like McIlroy, Schauffele, Sergio Garcia, and 71 other players, will all start the third round at 8:15 A.M. (EST). The first group of Max Greyserman and Sam Burns is scheduled to tee off at 8:15 A.M. They will be followed by the second group of McIlroy and Schauffele, who will be at the tee spot at 8:25 A.M. After every 10 or 11 groups, there will be a 20-minute gap between the tee times.

For example, Group 11, featuring Brian Campbell and Taylor Moore, will tee off at 9:55 A.M. The next group of Cameron Young and Daniel Berger will start their round at 10:15 A.M. This happens again between 11:55 A.M. and 12:15 P.M., and the last 20-minute break will be from 1:45 P.M. to 2:05 P.M. Every group will begin the round from the first hole.

That

was the schedule for the Saturday round of the 2025 PGA Championship. Now the only question remains: when will some of the big names tee off?

When will Scottie Scheffler and Bryson DeChambeau tee off in the 3rd round at Quail Hollow?

We have already revealed the time when Rory McIlroy and Xander Schauffele will tee off in the same group, i.e., 8:25 A.M. However, they might not be the favorites going into the weekend leg of the 2025 PGA Championship. All eyes will be on the likes of Scottie Scheffler and Bryson DeChambeau. Scheffler had an excellent round on Friday, finishing at 5-under par after 36 holes. He will be grouped with Max Homa, who also had an outstanding 18 holes. The two are scheduled to drive off at 2:25 P.M. (EST).

Bryson DeChambeau finished two strokes behind Scheffler at 3-under par to finish at T17. He will be grouped with Taylor Pendrith and tee off at 1:05 P.M. (EST) on Saturday. Tommy Fleetwood and Viktor Hovland ended up a stroke behind the Crushers GC captain. They are grouped for an 11:55 A.M. tee time. 10 minutes before then, Jon Rahm and Keegan Bradley are scheduled to take the field at 11:45 A.M. For all the LIV Golf fans, 11:25 A.M. will be a great time to tune in, as Joaquin Niemann and Tyrrell Hatton will begin their round from the first hole.

With so many exciting team-ups, the penultimate round of the 2025 PGA Championship is bound to be packed with some nail-biting action.
