What channel is The Match on in 2022? How to watch Tiger Woods-Rory McIlroy vs. Justin Thomas-Jordan Spieth golf match

Let’s leave this one to the professionals.

Through the years, “The Match” has evolved from something of a serious exhibition to a little bit more of a sideshow featuring amateur golfers. With the latest iteration, the format shifts a bit back to the former. (Sorry, Patrick Mahomes.)

It’s a foursome of golf pillars squaring off in Florida on Saturday night: Tiger Woods partners with Rory McIlroy to take on friendly rivals Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas from the Pelican Golf Club in Belleair, Florida. Saturday will mark the third time that Woods will appear in a Match event, with the others coming in the inaugural event in 2018 (vs. Phil Mickelson) and 2020, when he paired with Peyton Manning to take on Mickelson and Tom Brady.
