The Match 10
The Match is returning to TNT Sports with more celebrity golfers than ever—and a hefty prize on the line
The Match is returning for a 10th edition—and this time, it will feature an eightsome of celebrity golfers.
Dubbed The Match: Superstars, the latest installment of the TNT Sports series is set to air Nov. 21 and Nov. 22. The two-night primetime special will be simulcast on TNT and Max. (Disclaimer: Golf Digest, TNT and Max are all owned by Warner Bros. Discovery.)
Bill Murray, Mark Wahlberg, Charles Barkley, Wayne Gretzky, Michael Phelps, Nate Bargatze, Ken Griffey Jr. and Blake Griffin will tee it up—and all be mic'd up—in the event taking place at Breakers West Country Club in West Palm Beach.
For Barkley, the NBA Hall-of-Famer, it will be the ninth time he's participated in The Match as either a player or broadcaster. But it will be the first time with this format. The first night of the taped production will be two matches of two-man scramble that will serve as the event's quarterfinals, while Night Two will feature individual matches for both the semifinals and final. The winner will walk away with $1 million.
Barkley and Griffey will take on Murray and Gretzky in one quarterfinal, while Wahlberg and Phelps will play Bargatze and Griffin in the other.
Ernie Johnson and Trevor Immelman will be back in the booth for the event with Kathryn Tappen as course reporter. Two-time Masters champ Bubba Watson will make his debut in The Match as an on-course correspondent.
