The 2017 U.S. Open first and second round tee times and pairings have been released, and there are some great ones. The last three winners of this tournament will play together over the first two days, and of course, we have the drama of whether Phil Mickelson will actually make his 3:20 p.m. ET tee time on Thursday.

Here's a look at the way things stand entering the first day of the 117th edition of this tournament. With these groups, there are plenty of reasons to watch the entire day, and we here at CBS Sports will be with you the entire way covering the U.S. Open live.
