PGA Tour beats LIV Golf in cryptocurrency show
in a television show, perhaps the genesis of something that in the future could have its appeal, the duel between the two great circuits of the moment, the PGA Tour and LIV Golf, Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy, representatives of the old testament of golf, defeated Brooks Koepka and Bryson DeChambeau in Las Vegas.
The world number 1 and 3 ranked players beat the two representatives of the circuit created in 2022 without any qualms. In an 18-hole course, with three sectors of six, they won the fourball 3 and 2; in the foursome, 1 up, and in the singles Scheffler beat Koepka by 2 up with two holes to play, a circumstance that already gave him the victory by adding the half point needed, which is why the challenge ended with the result of 2.5 to 0.
The winners, in a show televised by TNT, and held at Shadow Creek, pocketed five million dollars in cryptocurrency. Former basketball player Charles Barkley, a great golf enthusiast, commentated on the sidelines. Among the people who attended the big stage in Las Vegas was Greg Norman, former CEO of LIV Golf.
