After heavy rains, Rocket moves Saturday tee times; here’s what fans need to know

Officials for the PGA Tour stop at Detroit Golf Club have pushed back tee times, and thus the fan entry times, for Saturday’s third round following heavy rain early Saturday morning. Tee times now are tentatively scheduled for between 1 and 3 p.m., and they’ll be playing in threesomes, teeing off on both the first and 10th holes.

Co-leaders Akshay Bhatia and Aaron Rai, the halfway-point leaders at 13 under, now are scheduled to tee off the first hole at around 3 p.m., along with Taylor Montgomery, who was at 11 under. Troy Merritt, Erik van Rooyen and Cameron Young, all at 11 under, will tee off just before them, at around 2:49 p.m., also off the first hole.

Fan favorite Rickie Fowler, at 6 under, will tee off around 1:30 p.m. on No. 10, with Ryan Fox and Matt Kuchar.

All the tee times eventually will be updated HERE.

Tournament officials announced Saturday morning that the gates would not open until 11:30 a.m. Saturday, after saying Friday night that they would open at 10 a.m. The early morning rain was heavier than expected. The shuttles from Wayne State and Detroit Mercy were set to begin operating at 11:15 a.m. If play is suspended and the Detroit Golf Club grounds are evacuated, fans will be allowed to re-enter the grounds when play resumes.
