Who is playing in the 2020 Hero Open?

Here are the first round tee times for the second event of the UK Swing at Forest of Arden Marriott Hotel & Country Club.

Miguel Ángel Jiménez

Miguel Ángel Jiménez will make European Tour history on Thursday when he hits his opening tee shot on day one of the 2020 Hero Open.

The ever popular Spaniard will start his 707th event and become the all time record appearance maker on the European Tour, passing 2002 Ryder Cup winning captain Sam Torrance.

Jiménez will get his round under way at 12.25 in the company of last week's winner Renato Paratore and home favourite Robert Rock.

Another man making a landmark appearance this week is Scot David Drysdale and he will begin his 500th European Tour appearance at 08.10 with Italian Edoardo Molinari and England's Jordan Smith.

Danish teenager Rasmus Højgaard and South Africa's Justin Harding both pushed Paratore over the weekend last week and they will tee off together at 08.20 alongside England's Matthew Southgate.

Pablo Larrazábal and Marc Warren both have a win under their belts so far this season and they get started at 08.45 alongside 2018 Ryder Cup skipper Thomas Bjørn.

Former U.S. Open champion Michael Campbell is playing his second event of the UK Swing and will be in the company of Britons Jamie Donaldson and Graeme Storm at 09.05.
