The Skins Game, presented by Capital One, returned to our lives on Black Friday and featured a match that involved Keegan Bradley, Xander Schauffele, Shane Lowry, and Tommy Fleetwood. As you would expect there were a lot of points of discussion around the Ryder Cup for obvious reasons.

But this particular match was about revitalizing The Skins Game and this edition of it aired on Prime Video to kickstart Black Friday. Prime Video established a huge slate of sporting action on the “holiday” that also involved the NFL and NBA. For professional golf to start the party was significant.
We have seen these matches, or ones of a similar variety, happen at different points over the last decade, and this one was a ton of fun. I have never understood why people call this the silly season as we are still watching the best golfers in the world do their thing. The format is different, but in this case it tugged at nostalgia for The Skins Game that many knew and loved long ago.
Keegan Bradley wound up winning the overall event as he took home the most skins. The Boston native finished with 11 skins and $2.1M for his efforts.
While Bradley was the overall winner there were other big-time moments from throughout the day’s action. Notably Tommy Fleetwood finished it all off to snatch $1.125M for himself.
The Thanksgiving weekend is filled with all sorts of sports and this was a wonderful addition to it all. Give me all of the golf. More. And then more.
Well done by everyone who was a part of the revitalized edition of The Skins Game!
