Detroit — The stars are set to take their swings at the Rocket Classic .
Several local sports celebrities will play alongside PGA Tour golfers at Detroit Golf Club during Wednesday's annual pro-am tournament, which is open to the public and free for fans.
Among the celebs scheduled to play are Lions legends Barry Sanders and Calvin Johnson, new Michigan head football coach Kyle Whittingham, former Michigan State basketball greats-turned-broadcasters Greg Kelser and Steve Smith, current Red Wing Alex DeBrincat, former Lion Joique Bell and Oakland head men's basketball coach Greg Kampe.
There might be more celebs participating, but those are the ones Rocket officials have publicized. Notably, Red Wings captain (for now) Dylan Larkin's name isn't on the list. He's played in previous pro-ams, including last year's. Larkin hasn't spoken publicly since requesting a trade earlier this offseason.
During the pro-am, four amateur golfers team up with a PGA Tour professional in a handicapped best-ball tournament. Each team gets assigned two PGA Tour players, with each of the pros playing nine holes. It's a pretty casual setting for the pros and celebs, and one of the best times for fans to score autographs during Rocket Classic week.
PGA Tour team pairings and celebrity tee times for Wednesday will be finalized during a private pairings party in downtown Detroit on Tuesday night. Tee times for PGA Tour pros for Wednesday are out, though. Among the notable start times, Rickie Fowler tees off at 12:26 p.m., Xander Schauffele at 12:37, Jordan Spieth at 1:32, Brooks Koepka at 7:07 a.m. and Cameron Young at 8:35.
Also scheduled for Wednesday is the youth clinic, which is from 4-5:30 p.m. on the member driving range at DGC.
Parking for Wednesday is free, and is at Detroit Mercy, 4001 W. McNichols Road. There is a free shuttle to the club.
