A shiny, new event is on tap for pro golf this week, and everyone is invited. The PGA Tour and LPGA Tour are teaming up for the first-ever Grant Thornton Invitational, a co-sanctioned mixed-team event that pairs 16 PGA Tour players with 16 LPGA pros. They’ll compete for a $4 million purse at Tiburón Golf Club in Naples, Fla.
Grant Thornton Invitational format
The 16 teams will play three 18-hole rounds in different formats Friday through Sunday. On Friday they’ll play a scramble, on Saturday they’ll play alternate shot, and on Sunday they’ll play a modified four-ball, meaning both players will tee off and then switch balls for their second shots, playing those same balls until holed.
