The rivalry between American professional golfers Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson has been one of the biggest talking points of the sport.
For the last decade or so, both golfers went up against each other on multiple occasions and dominated the sport of golf.
While a lot has been written about their rivalry by fans and experts, Tiger Woods once gave his take regarding his rivalry with Phil Mickelson.
During an appearance on “Inside the NBA” in November of 2018, Woods talked about competing against Mickelson and said:
“That’s just part of the deal. I have enjoyed competing and playing against him. We’ve been doing it for 20-plus years. But I’ve really enjoyed it.
And I think that there will certainly be some time talking involved and some snide comments and trying to get in one of his head. But the end of the day,
he understands who has more wins,” Woods said (at 4:51).
While official stats suggest Woods got the better of Phil Mickelson in head-to-head competitions, one of the most iconic moments for Mickelson came when he registered a victory against the 15-time Major winner in their golf challenge, “The Match”, which was held in 2018.
