The 2022 British Open begins on Thursday with tee times starting as early as 1:35 a.m. ET. For the last major championship of the season, the PGA Tour stops at the Old Course in St. Andrews, Scotland. While some members in the field have had some practice on link-style courses at the Scottish Open, the weather will present a unique challenge at St. Andrews this weekend. With some of the world’s top golfers in action, we’ll go over the British Open 2022 tee times, featured groups, and weather forecast.
British Open 2022 Field
The British Open will mark the final major championship of the 2022 golf season.
While many players crossed the pond last week to play in the Scottish Open, St. Andrews welcomes an even more talented field of golfers at the 2022 British Open. Golf fans will have a chance to welcome back golf legends, like Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods, back to St. Andrews.
This week, an in-form Rory McIlroy leads the field as the odds-on favorite to win the Open Championship. One of the hottest golfers on the tour, McIlroy has finished in the top 10 in five of his last seven starts, which also includes a victory at the RBC Canadian Open. The top golf betting sites also have Scottie Scheffler, Xander Schauffele, and Jordan Speith among the top British Open contenders.
With that being said, let’s go over the featured groups for Round 1 of the 2022 British Open.

The wind is always a factor at The Old Course but this weekend the weather forecast is projected to be “dry”. The most moisture expected is between 1-3 mm on Friday and the winds aren’t expected to be more than 21 mph, which means the fairways could play even faster than the greens this week.
Other than Friday, the British Open field will be expecting sunny conditions with the high at 79 degrees on Sunday. The weather is actually slightly warmer than the Saturday and Sunday at Southern Hills. However, there is always a possibility for pop-up showers at St. Andrews with a chance of rain as high as 90 percent on Friday morning.
