Today's best pairings for first round of the Masters

For current star power, the best time to be on the course will be around 10:15 a.m. Thursday, when the last three Masters champions go off in consecutive groups. Hideki Matsuyama is at 10:18; Jon Rahm at 10:30; and Scottie Scheffler at 10:42.

They're joined by one-step-from-a-Grand-Slam Rory McIlroy, major champs Matt Fitzpatrick and Justin Thomas, Olympic champion Xander Schauffele, and the first amateur to win on the PGA Tour in three decades in Nick Dunlap. And we haven't even mentioned Will Zalatoris yet.

In the afternoon, the crowds will be surrounding Woods and getting in front of his group for a good vantage point, but the three groups behind them feature two of last year's major champions in Brian Harman and Brooks Koepka; three other major winners in Jordan Spieth, Collin Morikawa and Dustin Johnson; perennial major challenger Tommy Fleetwood and three of the game's rising stars in Tom Kim, Ludvig Aberg and Sahith Theegala.

Watch Tiger, then enjoy even more quality golf behind him.
