The concept is this: six teams of three PGA Tour players, squaring off in match play on a data-driven virtual course that also includes a short-game complex for chipping and putting.
It'll be played on Monday nights, and will take only two hours, with in-arena fans all very close to the action. There will be 15 matches in the regular season, followed by semifinals and a final.

You have to hand it to Rory, he certainly values the history and tradition of the game  ;)

Will they be using the PGA model of volunteers to boost profits? College interns “earning” credits.
