Golf returned Sunday – a wonderful, strange, socially distant return.

For the first time in more than two months, golf came back to TV screens everywhere for the TaylorMade Driving Relief skins game. All eyes were on Seminole Golf Club making its grand television debut. All eyes were on the players. Could golf be played safely? Would it be fun to watch?

In the end, Rory McIlroy and Dustin Johnson defeated Rickie Fowler and Matthew Wolff in a sudden-death, closest-to-the-pin challenge. The day proved a rousing success, even if DJ nearly forgot his bag on the 18th tee box.
