RORY Mellroy is looking forward to trying “something different” at the inaugural Golf Channel Games, which will see his team go up against Scottie Scheffler’s squad over a series of challenges - including a relay and timed drive competition.
Masters champion Mcllroy, who enjoyed a stellar 2025, will be joined by European Ryder Cup captain Luke Donald, close friend Shane Lowry and China's Haotong Li at Trump National Golf Club Jupiter in Florida on December 17.
World number one Scheffler has Keegan Bradley, who captained the United States team at Bethpage Black, Sam Burns and upcoming PGA Tour talent Luke Clanton as his picks.
The tournament, which is set to be played through in around four hours, consists of five different challenges, with points available for each.
‘There will be a solo head-to-head timed drive competition at a scoring grid, as well as a short game of chipping and putting against the clock.
