Has anyone paid to watch the match tomorrow?  I wouldn't have hesitated at $19.99, but am ticked that Comcast is charging $29.99.  Will it be worth it?  Not a ton of money, but I would rather not think that I should sit and watch it all if it gets boring.  Supposedly match play. Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm watching it and for the 19.99 had the option to record it. Don't know why Comcast is charging 29.99

I think some of the cable channels made lucrative deals for themselves.

Same here @ $19.95. Not sure I have enough DVR room to record though, but I will be watching.

Yeah! Hope he puts the 9 mil in his petty cash fund so that he makes no stupid deals this year! My wish for Phil. They both need some putting work, from what I've read. I wonder if if many tuned in?

I watched it and glad it went 22 holes, cause the golf was just blah. No one truly hit a bad shot(like OB, water or wide left/right), but there weren't a ton of good ones either. Plus neither of them could putt. Phil could have been up huge early if he could make a putt, but he was a driving machine. Tiger was alittle off, but if he was putting like 2000 he would have won easily. They both missed alot of makeable putts. Maybe they would have been better served playing Pebble or Torrey . A course where they know the layouts and the greens. I was alittle disappointed in the trash talk or lack there of. Also the announcers seemed to talk over them alot and I would have enjoyed to hear more of Phil and Tiger. Certainly not a waste of $20 for 6 hours of coverage, but I wouldn't have purchased it if it wasn't Phil. Also my cable company cut me off at 8:00 and I missed the ceremonies. Guess if it went extra holes I would have had to buy the next show on the PPV schedule to keep watching.

Sorry that you didn't get to see the end. My Comcast preview said that it ended at 8. I didn't buy it at $29.99. In a way I wish I had.

My sister has Dish and hers continued. I got to see all the golf. Just missed the end but saw the presentation online. Can't believe Comcast wanted an extra $10. Heard they are reimbursing everyone though since BleacherReport gave it away for free

If I hadn't been so cheap, I could have seen it. It says online that Comcast was $19.99 but that's not true. Glad they're reimbursing people, but I don't understand why they had such a problem. Can't figure out from the reviews if it was a flop or not.

So I thought this was a Phil-Tiger idea. Turns out it was Hollywood execs and the PGA put a limit on side bets. Should have known

I really enjoyed it. 2 hours. Phil had done some voice-over I think. I thought that he hit some really good shots. Putting was another matter.

Looks like Phil-Tiger will play again in 2019 and 2020? Really? that was quite boring. I would say perhaps a team event, like they play in practice rounds where any smack-talk would be honorably divided amongst the 4 (or 6?) players and not look like an insulting back-and-forth between 2 people. That's what this was missing.
