Dubbed as "The Match: Superstars," the competition will begin with two matches of 2v2 match play in the quarterfinals. Murray and Gretzky will team up against Barkley and Griffey, while Wahlberg and Phelps will take on Bargatze and Griffin.
The event will finish with individual match play in the semis and finals. The winner takes home $1 million.
