Biltmore Championship Asheville Moves Up Final-Round Tee Times

Final-round tee times for the Biltmore Championship Asheville were moved up to a 7:43 a.m. ET start Sunday because of thunderstorms forecast for the afternoon at The Cliffs at Walnut Cove in North Carolina.

Players will go off in threesomes from the first and 10th tees through 9:55 a.m. ET. Neal Shipley takes a one-shot lead over Ben Kohles into the final round of the first event on the PGA Tour's 2026 FedEx Cup Fall schedule, with a $900,000 winner's check on the line.

Who is in the final group at the Biltmore Championship?

Shipley, at 21 under, headlines the last group off the first tee at 9:55 a.m. ET alongside Kohles, at 20 under, and Eric Cole, tied for third at 17 under. Ricky Castillo, also at 17 under, tees off at 9:44 a.m. ET in a group with Jacob Bridgeman and Max Greyserman, both at 16 under.

Weather has shaped the inaugural Biltmore Championship all week. Fog delayed the opening round, and preferred lies were in effect for much of the tournament because of heavy rain and high temperatures. Sunday's early groups are designed to get the field through 18 holes before storms move in.

How much is the Biltmore Championship purse?

The winner's share is $900,000, part of the purse for the first event on the PGA Tour's 2026 FedEx Cup Fall schedule.
