Designated. Then deflated. 

The emotions at this WGC-Match Play are wide. On one hand, the PGA Tour has elevated the tournament this year among 11 others, and the purse is now a record $20 million (and you can see the complete payout below). And the money has helped attract the who’s-who to Austin Country Club. And the who’s-who put on a show in Saturday’s round of 16 and quarterfinals. And the who’s-who — Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Sam Burns, Cameron Young — moved on to Sunday’s semis.

But then it’s over. The Tour isn’t playing the Match Play next year. And there’s some bittersweetness here.  

“I will. I will, for sure,” said Matt Kuchar, when asked if he’d miss the event. “I think these events are great. Seventy-two holes of stroke play every week sometimes runs together a bit. I miss the old International at Castle Pines; I miss the Stableford format. I think it was fun to mix it up.

“Match play, I certainly love, as you would guess with a good record — something unique, something different to do. Yeah, I’m bummed this is the final year for it.”

Still, the Match Play is going out with a bang. 

Television coverage of the Match Play starts at 10 a.m. on Golf Channel, and it will switch to Golf Channel starting at 2 p.m. You can stream simulcasts of the Golf Channel and NBC TV coverage via Peacock.
