Does anyone plan to plop down $20 for this? Does anyone know if the money won will be donated to a charity? If not, this is even more of a disgrace than I thought it is. Do these two dudes really need more money? And at Thanksgiving? Could it be that they want to hog the TV spotlight that pro and college football currently dominate? But to charge people to watch? c'Mon.
How much does 'The Match' cost on pay-per-view?
The event will cost $19.99 through the various pay-per-view options.
Tiger vs. Phil betting odds
Tiger Woods opened as a -200 betting favorite, according to BetOnline.com, with Mickelson as a +170 underdog. There are also plenty of prop bets to indulge, including the color of shirt worn by both Woods and Mickelson, and a stroke spread favoring Woods at -1.5.
What is the format?
The basic premise will be match play, which awards a point to a golfer when they win a hole. According to a release from Turner Media, Woods and Mickelson will be able to challenge each other competitions at various points during the match, including longest drive and closest-to-the-pin contests.

My cable provider put up the price by a penny to $20.00 but I’m still going to watch it have a few drinks and party like it’s $19.99 🎉

Rory nailed it. “Look, geez, if they would have done it 15 years ago it would have been great, but I think nowadays it missed the mark a bit,” McIlroy said. There will be plenty of “free options” by hunting around the internet that afternoon. Watched the Mayweather-McGregor match for free during 2017 Travers weekend on the computer in the condo. Hooper

Predicting that this will be a bit of a bust. I'd say I'd be 50-50 at best to tune in if it were free. I'd rather watch a real event from ANY of the tours.

BREAKING: Source says Turner execs decided to give Phil-Tiger match away for free on B/R Live streaming platform (instead of $20 charge) when purchase function broke down to point where those who bought had trouble getting in. 2:39 PM - 23 Nov 2018
And it was still overpriced at $0 from what I’ve seen in a couple of peeks. Hooper
