Mcilroy And Scheffler Rout Koepka And Dechambeau In Pga-liv Duel

Top-ranked Scottie Scheffler and third-ranked Rory McIlroy combined to give the PGA Tour a 2.5-0.5 victory over LIV Golf's Brooks Koepka and Bryson DeChambeau in Tuesday's Showdown match-play exhibition.

The PGA pair captured the 10 million top prize and tour 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.
