The US Golf Association announced tee times and groups for Thursday's first round of the US Open at Oakmont on Tuesday with defending champion Bryson DeChambeau in a traditional pairing.

DeChambeau starts off the first tee at 7:29 a.m. (1129 GMT) alongside fellow American Xander Schauffele, the reigning British Open champion, and Spain's Jose Luis Ballester, the 2024 US Amateur champion.

One group behind them at 7:40 off the first tee will be three US Open winners -- Americans Wyndham Clark and Gary Woodland and England's Matt Fitzpatrick.

Five-time major winner McIlroy, who completed a career Grand Slam by winning the Masters in April, starts off the 10th tee at 7:40 a.m. alongside 2013 US Open winner Rose of England and pal Lowry, the 2019 British Open winner from Ireland.

Three other Claret jug winners tee off together at 8:02 off the 10th tee -- Americans Phil Mickelson and Brian Harman and Australian Cam Smith.

Six-time major winner and six-time US Open runner-up Mickelson, who turns 55 on Monday, needs a win to complete a career Grand Slam.

Scheffler, who won his third major title at last month's PGA Championship, starts off the first tee at 1:25 p.m. alongside fellow American Morikawa, a two-time major winner, and Norway's Hovland.

Two groups ahead of them at 1:03 p.m. will be five-time major winner Brooks Koepka, fellow American Justin Thomas, a two-time PGA Championship winner, and Australia's Min Woo Lee.

Going off the 10th tee at 1:14 p.m. are three past major winners -- Spaniard Jon Rahm and Americans Jordan Spieth and Dustin Johnson.

One group behind them at 1:25 p.m. off the 10th tee will be England's Tyrrell Hatton, South Korea's Im Sung-jae and Austrian Sepp Straka.

US amateur Matt Vogt, a 34-year-old dentist from Indianapolis who got through as a qualifier, will hit the opening tee shot at 6:45 a.m. Thursday.
