2012 British Open Tee Times And Groupings: Martin Laird Will Be On The Course With Jason Dufner, Kevin Na

The 2012 British Open at Royal Lytham & St. Annes Golf Courses begins in earnest on Thursday when plenty of Americans will be sleeping, but that won't stop the hardiest of golf fans from following the action as it happens. For Colorado St. alum Martin Laird, his round begins at 3:15 a.m. MT when he, Jason Dufner and Kevin Na tee off. Laird has played in the last three Open Championships, but he has yet to make the cut in any of them.

Colorado resident David Duval begins even earlier at 12:47 a.m. MT. He is paired with Raphael Jacquelin and Miguel Angel Jimenez. This is the site of Duval's only major championship victory, shooting a 10-under back in 2001 to win by three strokes.
