Justin Timberlake among celebs playing Alfred Dunhill Links Championship


Rory McIlroy, Justin Rose and Jon Rahm are just some of the big names playing at this week’s Alfred Dunhill Links Championship. McIlroy has been runner-up three times in the tournament.

Starting Thursday, the tournament will be held over three courses – the Old Course at St Andrews, Carnoustie and Kingsbarns. There are two competitions this week, the individual professional tournament and the Team Championship, which pairs pros with amateurs.

Rose will tee it up alongside Justin Timberlake, who is playing in the event for the first time. McIlroy has played with his father, Gerry, in the Team Championship in the past.

Parts of the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship can be watched on Golf Channel. Coverage for the first through third rounds begin at 8 a.m. ET Thursday through Saturday and final round coverage begins at 7:30 a.m. ET on Sunday.

Here’s a look at some of the other celebs scheduled to play this week and those who have played in past editions of the tournament.
