Phil looked as sharp as a guy who is on his 11th hour loading an Amazon warehouse on Dec 23rd.  

I really hope it's not a blowout. Anti-climaxes suck.

Caddying! Samuel L would be an awesome caddy. "You are NOT going to try that M-fing shot!" "Someone get those M-fing Patrons off the M-fing fairway!" "Yo! Phil! What's in YOUR wallet? $

KP is what they call Closest to the Pin on Tour. Disc golfers call it "CTP." And Phil earns $100k for his charity. Tiger is about 50’ away to Phil’s 7’10”. This is boring. And screw the annou

I think pairs challenge matches would be fun.  Tiger and Phil take on the world.  Lots of interesting pairings, including some international ones.  Kaymer and Langer.  Sergio and Cabrera-Bello.  Rory and McDowell.  Poulter and Westwood.  

And domestically, Fowler and Spieth.  Johnson and Thomas.  Bubba and Reed.

Just to do some spitballing.

Tiger and Phil as a pair? Didn't work well in the Ryder Cup in 04...

That was 14 years ago, as you know. Things have changed.

Wouldn't have really made a difference this year, I don't think, though.

Very true. Mickelson is much much worse now...

LOL if you pair them, you only lose 1 point instead of 2.

I’ve heard hype about them being on mics so we can hear the trash talk. I’m not too interested in that. And it’s a gamble. If Tiger has Phil 5 down how much smack can Phil really give? Only two scenarios give me any interest: It’s actually really tight and it appears each really wants to win....or Tiger just totally Steven Aimes Phil.

Had a little chuckle, when someone on another site brought up the fact that atleast this time, one of them is guaranteed to win a match. 😁

My daughter is hearing rumblings that the company she works for is getting some comp tickets. If she does get them, and passes one or two my way, I would probably go see it. The course is a very nice walk, and the golf would be a plus.

Like others, I think Woody is going to easily win this contest.

Let´s make a virtual match against tiger and phil with what they score on the single match at the ryder cup. (just 4 fun)

Tiger   4 3 4 5 4 4 5 3 3 4 3 3 5 6 4 3 4
Phil     5 3 5 5 5 3 5 3 -  4 2 5 4 5 4 - 

Phil concedes 9th hole to be 3 down against tiger.
Been 1 down on the 16th, phil hit the water, tiger makes par to win the hole and be 2 up and 2 to play.
With 4 on the 17th hole Tiger is really close to win the match.

In just 18th holes everything can happen between to great players. Tiger is playing better but i think that the difference in 18th holes are minimal. Maybe 55% Tiger, 45% Phil.

It'll be funny if Phil buckles down, gets his game in order and wins.

It is a possibility.  

He’d have to do more than that to win if Tiger plays well.

Knowing Phil, this whole latter part of the year/Ryder Cup performance is a big ploy to skew the betting odds on the match.  In which he's vested indirectly as well!

If Phil plays good, he can beat Tiger.  TW is not a god.  Phil could play well and shoot 63.  Tiger could play great and shoot 64.  It happens.

Well - they estimated a  price for the Pay per View - it's about $20 more than I'd want to pay.....

and the poster still has Tiger with a left handed driver, too

What was the price?  Although personally, a price of $20 is $20 more than I would pay.

But then again, what the hell do I know?
