Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

KP is what they call Closest to the Pin on Tour. Disc golfers call it "CTP." And Phil earns $100k for his charity. Tiger is about 50’ away to Phil’s 7’10”. This is boring. And screw the annou

You can watch it live online through bleacher report: 

https://live.bleacherreport.com/tiger-vs-phil/?_branch_match_id=449232408521151064

What I’m trying to figure out is for those of us who work tomorrow, how to record it. My cable company isn’t one of the partners offering it, so I can’t TiVo it.

As @Missouri Swede said. I’m a cable cutter. I’m set up to watch it through Bleacher Report. It’s available through the current Roku, FireStick and Google Play and Apple TV platforms.

I'm recording it on DirecTV, but I don't think it'll play after about 3pm on Saturday.

We'll talk about it here, live, so if you don't want spoilers… don't visit this topic tomorrow.

From Bleacher Report's site:

Will there be ways to take part in the action?

Yes.  You can play the "Pick'em Challenge: Capital One's The Match" hole-by-hole during the event.  The goal is to make predictions and build a streak.  Picking a perfect match will win $1 million, and the overall points leader will win an all-expense paid trip to Las Vegas.

 

From the land of perpetual cloudiness.   I'm Denny

I'm gonna guess like the Olympics and other events, it'll be available to stream on demand, if you bought it, for a limited period after the event, dunno, a couple of days? Kind like like a Mission Impossible self destruct DVR. This PPV event will self destruct in 60 seconds. Smoke...

It's important to remember today that someone could be off their game a little and it could be a real snooze. If Phil or Tiger put up a 75… Zzzzzzzzz. That's the risk in match play with only two players playing only 13-18 holes.

So that’s the $19.99 gamble ;-)

Yeah that’s what I’m hoping doesn’t happen. No amount of banter or jokes will override a snoozer match.

with side wagers and what not in play, and the fact it's PPV, I would guess they'll play the full 18 regardless of outcome.   

also, as the guys on the barstool sports golf podcast like to say, I would pay $20 to watch Tiger Woods go grocery shopping, so this is really a no-brainer for me.

Working through the last two days, including not remembering to do any golf practice (so I'm losing my 5minute marker until this time December), was worth it to watch this.  Of course, it would have been better if I had remembered to do some golf practice. :-) 

So very very excited.

Driver:  Titleist 915D2.  4-wood:  Titleist 917F2.  Titleist TS2 19 degree hybrid.  Another hybrid in here too.  Irons 5-U, Ping G400.  Wedges negotiable (currently 54 degree Cleveland, 58 degree Titleist) Edel putter.

      My Favorite Putts

      By bkuehn1952 ·

      #4 - 1st hole at Kingsbarns I rolled in a 15 footer for birdie. Showed my caddie an old guy could still play a bit. #3 - 18th hole at Basin Harbor Club, Vergennes, VT. I had played matches against my nephew over the years. He had never beaten me although through the years he had become a long hitting teenage golfer. I was 1 up but bunkered near the 18th green. My nephew had a long putt for birdie. I splashed out of the bunker to 4 feet. He rolled his first putt close and I gave him the par. Sadly for him, I rolled mine in and won our last match. He went off to college and then Europe for a Ph. D. It was our last match. Family champion forever. #2 - First playoff hole in the City of Livonia, MI “65 & Over” division. I rolled in an 8 footer that broke about 4-5 inches. #10 Whispering Willows GC. #1  18th hole at TPC Prestancia, Sarasota, FL. A 4 foot slicing putt for par to beat the prior year’s Member/Guest winners and win the Member/Guest with my father at his club. I was having heart palpitations as I played the final hole solo when my father put two in the water. There was never a better golf sight for me when that ball dove into the hole.

      Finally, wedges getting somewhere. This one a punch gap from 87 yards to about 12 feet. Contact and ball flight absolute restaurant quality. It's nice when grass comes back.
