The Masters: English hope Tommy Fleetwood in Tiger Woods's group

European number one Fleetwood, who missed the cut on his debut at Augusta National last year, and Australia’s Marc Leishman will tee off alongside Woods at 15.42 tomorrow.

Woods is contesting the year’s first major for the first time since 2015 after undergoing spinal fusion surgery in April last year.

Earlier, Sheffield’s Matt Fitzpatrick is in a group with American hopeful Bryson de Chambeau and David Wiesberger (14.14), while fellow Sheffielder and the 2016 Augusta champion Danny Willett tees off at 1458 with Kyle Stanley and Jason Dufner.

Defending champion Sergio Garcia is in the group after Woods in the company of world number two Justin Thomas and US Amateur champion Doc Redman.

And the man Garcia beat in a play-off 12 months ago, Ryder Cup team-mate Justin Rose, has been drawn in the last group at 19.00 alongside world number one Dustin Johnson and Spain’s Rafa Cabrera Bello.

Rory McIlroy will start his bid to become the sixth player to complete the career grand slam at 18.38 alongside 2013 champion Adam Scott and Spain’s Jon Rahm.

Ian Poulter, who claimed the last place in the field by winning the Houston Open in dramatic fashion on Sunday, partners former champion Trevor Immelman and Patrick Cantlay at 16.48.

Gary Player and Jack Nicklaus will act as honorary starters at 13.15, with Masters officials again opting not to bring in a replacement for the late Arnold Palmer, who died in September 2016.

Austin Cook, Ted Potter and Wesley Bryan will begin the tournament proper at 13.30 UK time.
