Shankster Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 So I'm listening to PGA Tour Live, and I hear that Tiger and Phil are planning an exhibition match??!! Now this is made for TV stuff right here. Might as well come up with some name like UFC and make these pay per view events. This is good for golf!

But they should definitely have several matches going on. Like TW vs Phil Bubba vs DJ Rory vs Rickie This kind of stuff would be fun, and something different.

PlaidJacket Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 Sounds sort of interesting. If they're playing this match for money I'd hope it's for a charity and not to line their own pockets. Better yet, I'd like to see them put their own money on the line. Ain't going to happen of course. Therefore not sure how interested I'll be.

Mr. 82 Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 I agree 100% here, should be 99% to a charity, or many charities. Nah, screw that. They already have so much charity money going around. Let them wager their own money - $10 million is a good start, and let them go at it for 36 holes in one day or something like that. I'd also like to see multiple bets going on at the same time. Double or nothing if you make that putt, Phil. You know - spur of the moment side bets that stir interest on every shot, every hole, whatever. You have the overall pot for one match play event, and then let them go crazy with side bets. Phil to Tiger on the tee box at #7, "I've got $10,000 says you hook this into the left rough." Tiger to Phil on same tee box, "Double or nothing you miss right, Shankopotumus." I mean, this could be must see TV on an epic scale.

Peanut05 Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 This is something I'd love to see. And I would like it to extend past just Tiger and Phil. That's a heck of a way to start, though. I know both have been known to throw a few jabs every now and then, so having them mic'd up would make it even more entertaining.

Mr. 82 Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 so having them mic'd up would make it even more entertaining. If this was televised, I would require it of them if I am the TV people.

djahubes Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 I agree 100% here, should be 99% to a charity, or many charities. They are playing with their own money. Both do tons for charity already.

revkev Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 Yes it would be good - there is a long and storied history of these sorts of things going back before even the Walter Hagen barnstorming days. It's died down of late because the guys make more than enough money and play a World Wide schedule. Available dates are hard to come by. In other words don't get your hopes up for much more than a random match here or there. But whatever we get will be fun.

Kor.A.Door Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 I like it. I think it could be really good for them to invite 6 or 8 friends and have a super skills competition. They used to do those with football and baseball players and such. I would like to see the best in the game just have a super skills match. They could do some side bets like, it sucks you are behind that tree Phil I bet 10 grand I can put it closer than you. Those types of things. It will be cool to watch those to just play 18 for 10 mil., but I'd like to see more to make it more interesting Lefties are always in their Right Mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charli Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 I don't want this to be a charity event. These two have done enough. Their own money and s*** talking the whole way through. Fans or no fans? Waste management type crowd or masters type crowd? Or do you make it a call out tournament between the pros? 1mill minimum 10 mill max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shankster Posted July 6, 2018 Author Share Posted July 6, 2018 One a quarter there should be a “fightâ€. Like Mike Tyson vs Evander Holyfield. Without the whole ear thing... yes I watched that live on PPV. World #1 vs #5 #2 vs #7 #3 vs #8 #4 vs #6 Then have a couple of pre fights with 9 and on. Heck, make it under the lights. Something entertaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headhammer Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 If its PPV I would have no interest at all.

Also, it's kind of hard to believe, but Phil and Tiger are quickly falling into that category on the main tour - where the average age is like 19 or so it seems in recent years.
