Florida Governor Wants Woods-Mickelson Match For Content-Starved World
/Ron DeSantis has made sports an essential business in Florida, reports Jan Jankowski. He wants to generate content.
Gov. DeSantis said he is open to supporting more sporting events with no crowds.
“If NASCAR does a race and can televise it without having a large crowd, I think that’s a good thing,“ he said.
He also mentioned he would be open to seeing a Tiger Woods vs. Phil Mickelson golf challenge in the state.
“We wouldn’t have a gallery there, you wouldn’t have crowds. But to put that on TV, I think people have been starved for content,” DeSantis said.
So the easy part is done: Florida will host The Match 2 or whatever they are reportedly cooking up in the name of COVID-19 charity.
Now the hard part for Phil and Tiger: getting a PGA Tour release.
