No tickets will be sold to this high profile event. It will just be the two golfers, cameras and sponsors.

I guess it would just turn into a total sh*t show if drunk Tiger fans in Vegas got together and burned that course down. I guess they had a taste at the Tour championship.

Nevertheless, thoughts?

they may not be selling tickets, but i would think there will be people out there.....it will just be MGM whales and their friends/family.

Yeah, pretty sure they said when announced it would be VIP guests and they will be allowed in fairways.

Just a thought, if you've been to a PGA event, you can imagine how it might not make sense to sell tickets as though it's a regular tour stop.

Will only be two golfers on the course. Not as though you can post up and see groups on every hole. Entire gallery (whatever that will be) will be following the same "group."

The whole thing just sounds stupid to me. It might have made sense 15 years ago, but now?

I guess both are just happy not to be playing some Euros.

Yea, that's kind of how I feel about it too.

I understand why they wouldn't have a gallery but don't also make it PPV. It's like they don't want this to be a large spectacle.

If its Shadowcreek you can play there. It just costs around $550 I think to play it.

Last time I looked it up I read they would pick you up from the strip with a limo and all.

the limo pickup and return is included in the price and it's the only way you can get on the property.

I plan to watch it. I enjoy golf and I bet they make this match entertaining.

I would never pay $550 to play a round of golf (unless it was Augusta National).

Between a $25 PPV price tag for what is basically a silly season event + a full slate of Friday college football, this thing just seems like it's gonna be kind of failed. I guess you gotta ride the Tiger comeback wave. Only one matchup also sets it up for serious filler time. And let's not kid ourselves, it's not like the banter from Tiger is gonna be great. That's just not his style.

I'm excited about it. With the recent personality change of tiger I can't wait to see the interactions.

Pebble Beach is worth it. And that's what it costs.

Maybe not a personality change but he's been undoubtedly more open and a lot more likeable this year.

This isn't a criticism of the man, just a comment. When he was on top of the world was there anyone less fan friendly and more dismissive of his fans than Tiger? Now that he's had to climb his way back up he's Mr. Nice Guy. I didn't understand the fan reaction this year. The guy basically thumbed his nose at the golf fans for years.

Personality change pretty much = tries not to be a complete ahole in tourney pressers anymore.

South Florida vs. UCF
UVA vs. Virginia Tech
Oklahoma vs. West Virginia
Washington vs. Washington State

Quite a few other games including that traditional Thanksgiving rivalry Texas vs. Kansas that day.

I would think it's got to be people who only like golf and not football to get an audience.

Just figured out this was PPV only. I might pay to watch the final round of a major or Ryder Cup, but it seems incredulous that anyone shells out cash to watch an essentially meaningless match.

What am I missing?

Just not interested in paying for this. I'll be watching football and will catch the highlights later.

If they put up their own cash I would tune in, but since its sponsorship money......I'll pass. Will be rooting for Phil though!!

i don't know...there have been plenty of 4-hour stretches in Vegas when I've lost more than $550 and wished i'd played golf instead

Brother. Add a zero to play Augusta. IF you know a member.

I plan on streaming it on my ipad while i watch college football the rest of the afternoon.

It's only $20. Was going to play a round that morning, but a tweaked back is keeping me out this week, so I'm spending less and getting my golf fix for the day.

I'm a Tiger fan boy and I'm not ashamed about it. I'd pay $20 to pretty much watch him do anything. Roast me for it, I don't care!
