Event Results

Team 2 - $1Million Daniel Negreanu Erick Lindgren Josh Arieh
 
Team 3 - $1 Million Russ Hamilton Phil Hellmuth Bill Walters

Format:

This event on the High Stakes Golf Tour stipulated that each of the 9 players would ante up $1 million dollars in order to participate in the first event. The players decided the format of the game, negotiated the tee boxes and rules; just exactly as they do when they play like this away from the television cameras, tournament spectators, friends and family.

The format for the event was a three-man team scramble and each of the 9 holes would be worth $1 million. If two teams tied with the lowest score on an individual hole, then all teams tied, with no money won on that particular hole.  There would be no carry-overs.  Just like any Skins game or Nassau played on any given day on any course in America, money is paid out based on what you actually win; no guarantees, win or lose.
