Anyone know how to watch 'the match' in the UK? I know it is pay per view and a few American channels have got the rights but what the UK?

I am a bit disappointed with this.
I probably wouldn't have paid more than a few quid to watch, but possibly might have ordered it and had a couple of friends round.
I am more interested in the format.
Having the guys micd up and making side bets etc.
I think there is potentially a market for more matchplay golf and the strokeplay format is often not going to hold peoples attention for 4 days.

That's weird that it isn't available in the UK. What about online?

My understanding is there is not an official provider offering it as a stream or normal broadcast.
Possibly there will be unofficial streams available, but I tend not to bother with these as they become hassle for poor quality.

But unlucky that it starts at midnight 😢

Pretty much everyone watching in the UK will be streaming it. For free.

It will be around. Reddit will have streams. Vipbox will have streams.

Guess it shows the real level of interest in them when it looks like no broadcasting company is willing to take the risk to buy it on pay per view

Very disappointing that no-one wants to take this up for the UK and perhaps shows there is a distinct lack of interest over here. I would have watched it (subject to the cost) as its soemthing different and an event that is unlikely to be repeated by any other pairings any time soon

mickelson offering $100k that he birdies the first was cringe worthy.

I have the complete opposite opinion and don't think it's disappointing at all. Much rather watch a tour event with continued coverage than hear them talk smack as the Americans say to each other, its all cringey and fact that big Phil is also playing crap adds nothing to the event.
Plus having it registered on PGA tour official tournament list cheapens the importance of regular events.
I'd rather see a proper skins challenge like the old days where they have a few groups out playing for money that could then go to a charity rather than 2 multi millionaires playing a game that's all in aid of other multi millionaires in Vegas having a few bets with each other.
