Four-time winner Tiger Woods has been grouped with England's Luke Donald in the opening two rounds of the Masters.

World number two Rory McIlroy will partner 2011 US PGA champion Keegan Bradley and Sweden's Freddie Jacobson.

Last year's champion Bubba Watson will be accompanied by Europe Ryder Cup hero Ian Poulter, while Englishman Lee Westwood is in a group containing 2003 US Open winner Jim Furyk.

Sandy Lyle, the 1988 winner, kicks off the Masters on Thursday at 1300 BST.

Elsewhere, the group containing three-time winner Phil Mickelson will also generate keen interest. The American will have former world number one Martin Kaymer of Germany and last year's runner-up Louis Oosthuizen alongside him for the first couple of rounds.

Former US Open champion Graeme McDowell of Northern Ireland is in a group with 2007 winner Zach Johnson and Korea's KJ Choi, who was third in 2004.

Scotland's Martin Laird, who shot a final-round 63 to beat McIlroy and win the Texas Open title last weekend, will have Welshman Jamie Donaldson and 1998 winner Mark O'Meara for company.
