A golf match over a decade-in-the-making (and probably a decade too late) is finally upon us as Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson have announced the date of their winner-take-all match for $9 Million.
Dubbed simply “The Match”, Tiger and Phil will face off at the Shadow Creek Golf Club in Las Vegas on the day after Thanksgiving: Black Friday, November 23, 2018.
Uproxx reports that the match will be shown on PPV through Turner’s Bleacher Report Live service and will available on AT&T U-Verse, DirecTV, and various other on-demand platforms.
The match will be shown on PPV, run through Turner’s B/R Live and available on AT&T U-Verse, DirecTV, and other on-demand platforms. HBO Sports will run a 24/7 pre-match series, as they do with big boxing matches, in the build up to the event. While the match is set for $9 million, the two will have the chance to raise the stakes at any time in the match with side challenges like closest to the pin or long drive.

As for the favorite to win? Tiger, of course, at -180. Given that he’s had himself quite the bounce back year, that shouldn’t come as a surprise.
However, considering he’s a pretty heavy gambler himself, Mickelson probably loves that he’s getting plus odds at +150.
