This week features the latest iteration of Capital One’s The Match, where PGA Tour pros Rory McIlroy and Max Homa will compete with LPGA stars Lexi Thompson and Rose Zhang at The Park at West Palm Beach. Here’s everything you need to know to watch The Match, including the start time, TV coverage, streaming times and more.
The Match 2024 preview
On Monday, February 26th, golf fans will be treated to the ninth edition of The Match, but this one will look different than all the rest. The most recent editions have featured star athletes from other sports, but this year The Match is switching back to pro golfers.
4 reasons this edition of The Match will be very different (and better!)
And not just PGA Tour pros. LPGA stars Thompson and Zhang will be in the mix, competing against each other as well as Homa and McIlroy.
The Match 2024 Format
Another change to the latest Match is the format. Instead of a team competition, the 2024 Match will feature an individual competition, with all four pros playing for themselves in a skins match. The money awarded for each skin will be donated to the charities of each player’s choosing.
The event will stretch across 12 holes, with all pros playing the same tees on par-3s and different tees on the rest of the holes.
How to watch The Match 2024 on TV
As usual, you can watch the 2024 Match on TV via TNT, which will open the coverage at 6:30 p.m. ET on Monday.
Ernie Johnson and Charles Barkley will handle most of the broadcast duties, with assists from Christina Kim, DJ Khaled and more.
How to stream The Match 2024 online
This year’s TNT Match coverage will be simulcast online via TNT, TruTV, HLN and the B/R Sports Add-On on Max.
