This week’s Golf Thursday was a bit delayed … but for good reason. I got to sit in on a Zoom with four of the best golfers in the business to discuss the latest iteration of The Match, which will be broadcast Monday, Feb. 26th, on TNT. Max Homa, Rory McIlroy, Lexi Thompson, and Rose Zhang gathered to discuss details of the event, preparation and what this moment in particular means for golf as a whole.
It was as casual as any conversation could be, with Zhang tuning in from a local campus cafe, as she is currently nose-deep in her textbooks completing the winter term at Stanford. The most striking part of the conversation came when our dear friend Sarah Kellam asked what this moment meant for the game, giving women a platform. Homa and McIlroy were more than gracious when asked about Thompson and Zhang throughout the call.
