I really wanted to enjoy this today, but was bored

My recording ended as the hit off the tee on 17. Who won?

Rory made a putt to tie 17, DJ carried to tie on 18...then Rory won in extra holes, which was closest to the pin on the short Par 3.

 Should be entertaining today...nowhere to go but up.

Match format

The event will be match play, and the front nine will be best ball. Here's an example of how that works. If Manning, Brady and Woods all make par at No. 1 but Mickelson makes birdie, the Mickelson-Brady team is 1 up. Manning and Brady receive one stroke each on No. 3, No. 6 and No. 8 per their handicaps, and that's how the front nine will be played.

One wrinkle is a one-club challenge on No. 5 -- a par 4 -- in which golfers must choose one club to play the entire hole with (including putting!). I'm excited about that because it gives us a genuine look at how skilled players like Woods and Mickelson are when faced with an adversity. In the point-and-shoot world of professional golf, we often don't get to see the extreme creativity they possess, which a 30-yard chip shot with a 4-iron can disclose.

The back nine is where it gets intriguing. It's a modified alternate-shot format, which means that everybody tees off but after that you have to alternate. So one golfer's drive will be chosen, and then the teammates -- Brady and Mickelson, for example -- will alternate shots until they hole out and move on to the next hole. The quarterbacks will not be teeing off from the same tee boxes as Woods and Mickelson.

Odds

Woods and Manning are -190, while Mickelson and Brady are +170. This is probably the right call as Manning is a bit better than Brady, and Woods -- when healthy! -- is better than Mickelson at this point in their careers (and at every point in their careers).

@CltPadilla: So I’m guessing #TheMatch won’t be teeing off as scheduled. Thanks again, 2020. https://twitter.com/CltPadilla/status/1264620818065248258/photo/1

Unbelievable. Although it’s supposed to be raining here in Tampa and we haven’t had a drop or any lightning.

[lod001 5,407]

Get out there and entertain me! Wusses.

[Joe Mammy 1,099]

They are playing!

[belljr 11,271]

I think I'll just film myself this Sunday, it will pretty much the same

[lod001 5,407]

Does the course have lights on it cause they are taking a 1/2 hour a hole.

Edited May 24, 2020 by lod001

[Roy L Fewks 360]

Maybe playing a course with lots of trees wasn't such a good idea?

[belljr 11,271]

Tom Brady is a "10" hcp and doesn't hit driver?

:cough: bull#### :cough:

When sports comes back they need to allow everybody to talk this much #### 

[lod001 5,407]

holy cow. embarrassing.

[Joe Mammy 1,099]

Phil, “why was I stuck with Brady?”

[belljr 11,271]

I'm done with this travesty 

Going outside

Hits fairway wood with screaming fade into trees.

Plays provisional higher and further right

[Binky The Doormat 12,942]

think the producers of this match up really envisioned "shots so deep in the scrub we can't see the faces of these guys"?

[TLEF316 5,029]

Yeah I call absolute bull#### on brady being a 10

Edit: or actually an 8? Yeah....ok

Tiger and Brady are the GOATs of their respective sports but Peyton and Phil are so much more likeable.

I was just coming to say that Manning is genuinely just an entertaining guy. I’ll never pay for ESPN+, but Peyton’s Place being exclusive to it made me think about it.

[Joe Mammy 1,099]

At this pace it will be a 6 hour round! Peyton’s comedic presence makes this tolerable. Hey, what else do we have?

NASCAR at 6 pm ...

and sundown in 3+ hours

[lod001 5,407]

Brady is horrible.

[JaxBill 6,957]

he might hit the green but not that green

[TLEF316 5,029]

I'm a 15 and I just played my worst round of the year this morning and I'll play Brady straight up right now

[Joe Mammy 1,099]

Barkley, “Tom, I should have said $50k if you can keep it on the planet!”

Dude, you gotta give him strokes. Like 1 a hole.

[JaxBill 6,957]

should you be allowed to use your driver for relief on the 1 club challenge hole?

[Capella 31,415]

This is extremely entertaining, y’all are nuts

in a trainwreck way

 

@BKoepka: I’ll donate 100k through the @bkcharityfund if @TomBrady makes a par on the front 9 #TheMatch #TNT

[TLEF316 5,029]

Brady skulls a wedge through the green. Looks like they've mercifully taken the shot tracker off him.

Koepka offers 100k if Brady makes a par on the front 9.lol

Edit: to be fair it wasn't a wedge, since they're doing 1 club on this hole

Shot tracer probably can’t find it

[TLEF316 5,029]

And now he straight hozzles a pitch.

I could watch this every day

[lod001 5,407]

Brady is getting mad. He's gonna yell at Mickelson for not doing his job.

Yeah, this is a riot. I’ve probably laughed out loud a dozen times today.

Really enjoying this.

[heckmanm 4,434]

F’n Barkley talking #### to him now

eta and he jars one!
