Is Mickleson still seen as a star? Is he still competitive or is he living on past glory?
I watched an interview with Scott O’neill and Bryson t’other day. They were discussing the future of LIV, how they are pioneering the use of new technologies to help drive the league forwards etc. These guys are huge stakeholders in LIV and the financial rewards for them creating a successful global golf tour are unimaginable to most people.
He might be, but even 28 handicappers can hit a decent shot every now and again
Maybe not the longest off the tee anymore, but arguably still has the best short game in the world.
He's entertaining to watch even if unlikely to win anything. Although I would have said the same thing four years ago and he won a major out of nowhere.
He certainly is entertaining round the greens and his some miraculous shots. But that disguised the fact his stats didn’t back up the best in the world claim.
Scottie doesn't need a brilliant short game because he largely doesn't put his ball in the rubbish in the first place. Seve and Phil get mentioned so much but both had to have a great short game due to how wayward they were off the tee. We remember the dramatic shots from bushes and behind trees. Scottie doesn't get to play these, he hits him up the middle
Of course they would. Many of them would also tell you putting is the most important part of the game.
The ‘whole world’ drinks Coca Cola and Pepsi, and eats KFC, but it doesn’t mean it’s any good
That there is a golf media hard-on whenever Tiger Woods in 2025 shows up at a Father and Sons event, or sends a tweet of him hitting a wedge, is really nothing to be proud of..and doesn’t show golf media or those who continue to fawn / use his name, in a good light
Accept that for Tiger it is ‘over’
Good job LIV didn’t spend hundreds of millions on Woods. He’s done, and would have struggled to complete any LIV event he was entered in.
You think they wanted Tiger to compete?
