World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and third-ranked Rory McIlroy were thrilled to give the PGA Tour a 2.5-0.5 win over LIV Golf's Brooks Koepka and Bryson DeChambeau in The Showdown matchplay exhibition on Dec 17.

LOS ANGELES - World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and third-ranked Rory McIlroy were thrilled to give the PGA Tour a 2.5-0.5 win over LIV Golf's Brooks Koepka and Bryson DeChambeau in The Showdown matchplay exhibition on Dec 17.

The PGA pair captured the US$10 million (S$13.5 million) top prize and bragging rights over the Saudi-backed upstart circuit in the four-man event at Shadow Creek in Las Vegas.

"We're super happy to get the win. It's a nice way to finish the year," McIlroy said.

"Scottie and I got off to a pretty good start and then from there it was just about trying to keep the momentum."

The event, played mostly after dark under special lighting, pitted four-time Major winner McIlroy and two-time Masters champion Scheffler against five-time Major winner Koepka and two-time US Open champion DeChambeau.

"Under the lights was fun," Scheffler said. "It was really challenging."
