The Open Royal Liverpool Golf Rory McIlroy

The 151st Open Championship got underway on Thursday 20th July, but when is the pre-tournament favourite Rory McIlroy teeing off for his third round on Saturday? The four-time major champion and 2014 Open Championship winner tees off on Day 3 at Hoylake at 2:25pm on Saturday afternoon (BST).

When Does Rory McIroy Tee Off On Day 3 Of The Open?

With the 151st Open Championship now underway, golf fans are strapping themselves in for a compelling week of action from Royal Liverpool Golf Club (Hoylake).

Heading into The Open, Rory McIlroy was the outright betting favourite with the best golf betting sites to win his first major in almost a decade. McIlroy’s last major victory was in fact at The Open back in 2014, when coincidently, McIlroy won at Royal Liverpool.

The Northern Irishman’s third round at Hoylake gets underway at 2:25pm on Saturday 22nd July (BST).

McIlroy has been paired with American golf star Max Homa, with the pair getting their third round underway in the seventh from last group of the day.

McIlroy sits at -1 after 36 holes, nine shots behind current leader Brian Harman. If the three-time FedEx Cup winner is to claim a second Claret Jug come Sunday, he will need a huge round this afternoon to throw himself into contention.
