There’s a new golf tournament taking place this week with a limited field, an exciting format and a bunch of recognizable names.
Yep. You guessed it. The first event of the Icons Series takes place June 30th and July 1st at Liberty National Golf Club just outside New York City.
Liberty National hosted the 2017 Presidents Cup, and the team format used that week is the format this new series will employ. It will feature 12 iconic professional athletes from the U.S. competing against their counterparts from around the world.
Here are the rosters for both teams:
United States
Fred Couples – Captain
Michael Phelps – 10 Handicap, Swimming
Michael Strahan – 6 Handicap, American Football
Ben Roethlisberger – 4 Handicap, American Football
