2026 Cognizant Classic Friday tee times: Round 2 groupings

The second round of the 2026 Cognizant Classic in the Palm Beaches gets underway Friday, February 27, at PGA National in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. You can find full Cognizant Classic tee times for Friday’s second round at the bottom of this post.

Featured tee time for Round 2

The Cognizant Classic in the Palm Beaches got off to a hot start in the opening round. PGA Tour pros took advantage of the easier course conditions PGA National has presented in recent years, with many players going low over their first 18 holes. Austin Smotherman took the early lead with an impressive nine-under 62.

But it’s still very early, and with birdie opportunities all over the place, stars like Brooks Koepka, Will Zalatoris, Shane Lowry and Max Homa have plenty of time to catch the leaders, beginning with Friday’s second round.

Players who started on the 1st tee for Round 1 will switch to a 10th-tee start for Round 2.

Koepka, who teed off in the afternoon wave in the opening round, will have an early start at 7:33 a.m. ET for the second round. He’ll be looking to survive and play the weekend after missing the cut in his last start at the WM Phoenix Open.

You can watch Friday’s second round of the 2026 Cognizant Classic in the Palm Beaches from 2-6 p.m. ET on Golf Channel. PGA Tour Live on ESPN+ will provide exclusive early streaming coverage beginning at 6:45 a.m. ET on Friday, in addition to featured group and featured hole coverage.
