I think something like this would be more interesting at the beginning of the season. Everybody craving some dg coverage, can use the trash talking interviews to build a little hype for the upcoming season…
I agree with the comments about it being fairly dull to watch. Typically tweener par holes are bad on courses but for something like this I think they'd work well. It's possible to pick up a stroke with a riskier shot, just depends on how bad the player wants to go for it. Instead it seemed like a lot of play it safe and let the other person make the mistake.
Logistically the early season match play would be tough to swing since the seeds are based on your points. You could use the previous season points potentially. Or maybe have it as the next event after Worlds…kinda use it as a mid season All Star break?
IMO they could do it farther south later in the year or even during the off season. There was a big Match Play Championship (Player's Cup) in Florida for a few years but it went the way of the dodo.
