Skins Game Returns With Koepka, Thomas, Clark And $4 Million

Golf's most entertaining money game is getting another shot at Black Friday glory, and this year's lineup brings some serious star power.

The 2026 Farmers Insurance Skins Game returns Nov. 27 with Brooks Koepka, Justin Thomas, Wyndham Clark and rising star Jackson Koivun competing for a $4 million purse at Atlantic Fields Club in Florida.

The competition begins at 9 a.m. Eastern on Prime Video, with fans able to watch for free without an Amazon Prime membership.

For golf fans who remember watching legends such as Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Fred Couples and Tiger Woods battle for enormous individual-hole payouts, the event's continued revival should be welcome news.

And this year's format brings back a familiar approach.

Rather than beginning with money already credited to their accounts, all four competitors will start at zero. Each hole carries a designated cash prize, and whenever players tie, that money carries forward.

That means one clutch birdie could deliver a massive payday.

The most intriguing participant might be Koivun, whose remarkable rookie season has turned him into one of golf's hottest young players.

The 21-year-old former Auburn standout joined the PGA Tour in June and wasted little time making headlines. He captured the 3M Open in July, outlasting world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, before earning a captain's selection for the United States Presidents Cup team.

Koivun went unbeaten at 2-0-1 during the Americans' competition, including a crucial singles victory over Si Woo Kim.

Now he'll face three established stars in a completely different environment.

Koepka brings five major championships and a reputation for thriving under pressure. Thomas owns two PGA Championship titles, while Clark captured the 2023 U.S. Open.

The combination promises plenty of competitive firepower and personality.

Last year's revival ended a 17-year absence, with Keegan Bradley collecting 11 skins and $2.1 million against Tommy Fleetwood, Xander Schauffele and Shane Lowry at Panther National.

Now organizers are hoping a completely new field and a different venue can build on that momentum.

Luis Goicouria, executive vice president of PGA Tour Studios, said the event provides another opportunity to showcase golf on "one of the biggest days on the sports calendar."

Andrew Catalon and Colt Knost return to the broadcast, with Dan Rapaport providing additional on-course commentary.

The tournament also launches Prime Video's Black Friday sports marathon, which includes an NFL game and an NBA doubleheader.

But the real attraction is simple.

Four elite golfers. Millions of dollars available. And the possibility that one unforgettable shot changes everything.

That's what made the original Skins Game compelling, and it's exactly what organizers hope brings viewers back.
