The 2026 PGA Championship heats up on Saturday, May 16, with the third round at Aronimink Golf Club in Pennsylvania. You can find full PGA Championship tee times for Saturday’s third round at the bottom of this post once they are released Friday night.
Round 3 tee times: What we know
Before Saturday tee times at the 2026 PGA Championship can be determined, Friday’s second round must come to an end. Once it does, the cut will be made, with about half of the field heading home early. The survivors will prep to continue their quest for major glory on Saturday.
We won’t know the official tee times until the final putt drops Friday, but there are a few things we do know. First, players will tee off in pairings for Saturday’s third round, with everyone starting off the 1st tee.

Additionally, Round 3 tee times will be based on leaderboard position, with the leaders occupying the final grouping and starting in the afternoon. The players at the bottom of the leaderboard after the cut will tee off first Saturday morning.
We can also look to the past to get a good idea of what this year’s tee times will be. On Saturday at last year’s PGA Championship, Rory McIlroy and Xander Schauffele were scheduled to tee off in the first pairing at 8:25 a.m. ET, while the leaders were meant to start their rounds at 2:45 p.m. ET. However, inclement weather Saturday morning forced organizers to push tee times back.
If bad weather is avoided this year, you can expect Saturday tee times at the 2026 PGA Championship to fall between 8 a.m. ET and 3 p.m. ET.
No matter when they tee off, you can expect stars like Scottie Scheffler, Jordan Spieth, Patrick Reed, Brooks Koepka and more to be in the mix on Saturday.
