2024 LIV Golf Chicago round 1 tee times and pairings explored

The 2024 LIV Golf Chicago commences this week and the event will be played between September 13th and September 15th at the iconic Bolingbrook Golf Club. Like every event, this one too is of sheer importance since it's the last event before the Team Championship in Dallas.

Ahead of the event, there are a lot of questions surrounding it, a major one being the tee-off time for Round 1 of the event. Since LIV Golf Chicago will oversee a shotgun start, every golfer participating in the event will tee off at 12:15 PM (ET) in Round 1.

The tournament will also feature 54 of the best golfers from around the world. The likes of Bryson DeChambeau, Brooks Koepka, Sergio Garcia, and Phil Mickelson will all be present to compete at the Saudi-backed event.

However, the real battle will be between Jon Rahm and Joaquin Niemann who are both eyeing this year's Individual Championship. Mathematically, these two players are sure to finish in the top three. Tyrrell Hatton, Sergio Garcia, and Brooks Koepka are some of the golfers who will be fighting for third place.
