Tiger vs. Phil Exhibition Match


Shankster

Recommended Posts

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!

Yeah, I got a little excited there for a second.

 

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.

I used to love the skins games of yesteryear with Jack, Arnie and company. Maybe this will start something new like that. I remember Phil & Tiger were talking about this a few tournaments ago and I'm looking forward to seeing what they come up with...Should be fun!

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.

I agree 100% here, should be 99% to a charity, or many charities.

Hmmmm. Sounds familiar and reminds me of Monday Night Golf or:

 

Showdown at Sherwood

Battle at Bighorn

Battle at the Bridges

Duel at Lake Jinsha

 

Likes the concept back in the day and wish they would bring it back.

Yeah was reading this earlier. 10 mill match. I like it. What course would they pick

Now I am interested.  I want to see some REAL money of their own on the line.  Like Tiger said when asked, "enough to make it hurt."   :D

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.

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.

If this was televised, I would require it of them if I am the TV people.

Could be interesting, but the format needs worked out. If its stroke play and one player has a blow up hole its over and I lose interest

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.

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

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

One a quarter there should be a “fight”. 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.

If its PPV I would have no interest at all. Phil has always played his best golf when paired with Tiger, but while my heart says Phil my head says Tiger, even with his current putting woes!

I think the format got stale, but I still liked the idea. It was less "formal" than a strict tournament and it was always the best golfers. Can't remember where they played though...

Only thing that would make this better is if they were putting up $10M of their own cash.

I have to admit, the "battle of the geezer's" is funny.  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.
