The pairings for this week's Safeway Classic were released Thursday.
The three-day, 54-hole LPGA Tour stop at Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club's Ghost Creek course in the Pacific Northwest (North Plains, Ore.) has a Manatee County flavor to it.
Paula Creamer, Jaclyn Sweeney and Jessica Korda are all in the field.
Creamer, an IMG Academies alum, tees off No. 1 at 12:21 p.m. alongside Michelle Wie and Stacy Lewis.
Sweeney, a fellow IMG alum who calls Bradenton home now, also starts off the front nine. Her tee time is 1:05 p.m. and she'll play with the teenage phenom, Lexi Thompson, and Shi Hyun Ahn.
Korda, a Bradenton native, begins bright and early off No. 10 at 7:15 a.m. The 2010 U.S. Women's Amateur runner-up plays with Heather Bowie Young and Allison Fouch in the first round.
Television coverage of the day one starts Friday at 6:30 p.m. on The Golf Channel.
