2012 PGA Championship: Tee Times, Pairings For Thursday's Opening Round

With the start of the PGA Championship at The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island on Thursday, teaching and touring pros combine to achieve their dreams of winning a major championship, though all eyes will be on 15-time major champion Tiger Woods to see if he can finally break through for his 16th.

Woods hasn't won a major since the 2008 U.S. open, 18 straight majors now, the longest streak of his career. But Ernie Els just proved it doesn't matter how long the time is between majors, but you don't forget how to win them.

Woods will tee off early on Thursday with Keegan Bradley and Martin Kaymer, starting their round off the No. 10 tee at 8:30 a.m. ET.
