Newly-crowned Open champion Padraig Harrington will start his USPGA challenge with US Masters winner Zach Johnson and Angel Cabrera, who triumphed in the US Open.

The final Major of the year starts this Thursday, and defending champion Tiger Woods looks to have peaked at the right time following his sublime performance at the WGC Bridgestone Invitational at the weekend.

The world number one will open his defence alongside fellow Americans Bob Tway and Rich Beem at Southern Hills in Tulsa.

Irishman Darren Clarke, who received a special invitation to the event, will play his first two rounds with South African Retief Goosen and American Boo Weekley.

Scot Colin Montgomerie, who is still looking for his first Major title, will have Ernie Els and Stewart Cink in his opening three-ball.
