PGA Tour, LIV Golf sides to battle in Las Vegas on TV

---

Representatives of all four players confirmed their involvement to Golfweek.

Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler will face Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka in a made-for-TV match later this year, Golfweek has learned.

The contest pits the two biggest stars on the PGA Touragainst the most high-profile figures on LIV Golf, and will be widely interpreted as indicating a potential thaw in relations between the once warring camps.

The event will be held mid-December in Las Vegas and will air on TNT, which is owned by Warner Brothers Discovery. TNT previously broadcast nine editions of The Match, the series of exhibitions that launched in 2018 with Tiger Woods vs. Phil Mickelson. McIlroy, Koepka and DeChambeau have all appeared in versions of The Match, but it’s unclear if this latest battle will be a continuation of that series. Four previous Matches were held in Las Vegas, three at Wynn Golf Club and one at Shadow Creek.

I wonder if this signals a small step in the LIV/PGA Tour thing, as the Tour has been a producer or involved in the previous versions of The Match.

I'm not sure if it signals a step toward the LIV/PGA Tour thing. But I will say this. I'm looking forward to watching it. 

I have enjoyed all of "the matches" to different degrees. 

This one looks like fun to me.

Couldn’t they have just changed the name and do it independently on YouTube?

Brooks/Bryson a team?? I thought there was a greater chance of the Vatican ministering a gay wedding!

Maybe it is a small step in that direction. I'll be watching.
