A year and a half ago, Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson came together on a golf course in Las Vegas to play in a one-on-one, made for TV golf event. The event, held the day after Thanksgiving, was watched by millions of people and received a mixed bag of reviews. Many expected that since the two were wearing microphones and the event was on PPV that we would get to hear a lot of back and forth banter that wouldn't normally be heard on a golf broadcast.

Well, Tiger and Phil have decided to give it another try, this time with some friends and benefiting COVID-19 relief. 

"The Match: Champions for Charity" will be a team event pairing Woods with retired NFL quarterback Peyton Manning against Mickelson and Tampa Bay Bucs quarterback Tom Brady. 

The event will take place on Sunday, May 24th at 3pm at the Medalist Golf Club in Hobe Sound and will be televised across multiple Turner platforms including TNT, TBS, and TruTv. The format for the event will be 9 holes of best ball and 9 holes of a modified alternate shot. 

The Medalist was co-founded by Greg Norman in 1991 and lists Woods as it's many famous members.
