“The Match,” a televised exhibition that started in 2018. This will be Woods’ third appearance in the tournament. He participated against Phil Mickelson in November 2018 and again in 2020. Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Tom Brady has also played in the star-studded competition in 2020. According to Golf Digest, this will be the first appearances for McIlroy, Spieth and Thomas. This will be Woods’ fourth match since returning from his car crash in 2021.
The Pelican Golf Club in Belleair also hosts the Pelican Women’s Championship, Tampa Bay’s only LPGA event. Golf Digest reports that “The Match” will again be broadcast by Turner Sports, which means you can watch from home on TNT! Coverage starts at 6p.
Golf events are huge in Tampa Bay. The Valspar Championship that takes place at Innisbrook Golf Course brings in thousands of people each year. The competition raises money for local charities through the Championship’s Birdies for Tampa Bay Charities program.

Florida's 10 Best Retirement Cities
#1: Orlando
Surprised as I was? The traffic alone in Orlando is a disqualifier for me personally. But I guess when you’re retired, you’re not in too much of a hurry to get to work. Orlando’s got a bunch of activities and that certainly helped them rank 2nd nationally and 1st in Florida for retirement.

#2: Miami
If you’ve got the money, Miami definitely has the sun and beaches.

#3: Fort Lauderdale
Activities was where Fort Lauderdale scored highest. But like Miami, the affordability factor kept its score down overall.

#4: Tampa
Ranked 11th nationally for activities, Tampa just barely made the Top 10 in the country for retirement. Tampa’s weak spot was said to be healthcare. Agree?

#5: St. Petersburg
Personally I think retirement is a lot more fun on the Pinellas side, but St. Pete ranked lower than Tampa on this survey. St. Pete scored well in affordability (really?), activities and quality of life – but like Tampa, slipped in the rankings a bit due to the healthcare.
#6: Cape Coral
Quality of life is where Cape Coral did really well, landing 20th nationally.

#7: Pembroke Pines
Pembroke Pines ranked 19th in the country for quality of life, but scored poorly on affordability and activities.

#8: Port St. Lucie
Affordability was Port St. Lucie’s strength – they ranked #30 nationally.

#10: Jacksonville
Coming in 68th overall, Jacksonville scored really well in affordability, but poorly on healthcare and quality of life.
