McIlroy arrives at the Jack Nicklaus-hosted event in Ohio off the back of nine top-10s in his last 10 starts, while Woods returns to action looking to add to his five Muirfield victories and register a record-equalling 82nd PGA Tour title.

Woods has been grouped for the first two days alongside world No 3 Justin Rose - the highest-ranked player in the field - and defending champion Bryson DeChambeau, who came through a three-man play-off to win last year's event.
