DeChambeau, Koepka set to face off in epic Las Vegas match

Share

Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka are taking their feud to the golf course this Thanksgiving.

The two rivals reportedly are set to face off at the Wynn Golf Club in Las Vegas on Nov. 26 for the fifth edition of TNT's "The Match."

The showdown will be the first one-on-one matchup since Phil Mickelson reigned victorious over Tiger Woods in the inaugural edition three years ago.

DeChambeau and Koepka have been trading barbs since January 2019, when Koepeka took a shot at DeChambeau's pace of play.

Things got heated at the 2021 PGA Championship in May, when a video of Koepka's reaction to DeChambeau walking by during an interview with Todd Lewis went viral.

When DeChambeau linked up with Aaron Rodgers to face Tom Brady and Mickelson for the last edition of "The Match", Koepka could help but chime in, leading to yet another back-and-forth between the golf stars. 

Both DeChambeau and Koepka put their quarrels aside to help the U.S. win the Ryder Cup a few weeks ago, but expect the trash talk to ramp up ahead of the Thanksgiving event. 

Ernie Johnson and Charles Barkley are expected to provide commentary on the match with Mickelson involved.

An official announcement on the details, format and stakes is expected to come later in the week.
