Phil Michelson praised Tiger Woods, but it is not as if we are sitting and discussing it \
Scotland’s Trum -Tiger Woods and Phil Michelson, at least, recognized themselves when they noticed at least earlier this week, and practiced the Royal Troue side in front of the open championship.
On Saturday, Mikelson confirmed that he and Woods greeted the ball in the nearby kiosk, but were too busy to prepare for a long conversation. “We said hello,” said Mikelson after the 72nd round at the opening. So he decreased at the age of 54. “Yes, we said hello, but both were preparing. We’re not going to sit there and talk. But we said, ‘Yes, hi.'”
Longtime rivals Woods and Mickelson have never been close, but their relationship has hit a snag in recent years. Mickelson is one of the top recruiters for the LIV Golf League, and Woods is an active member of the PGA Tour’s policy council, which fended off the Saudi Arabia threat and now may reunite the game.
Asked if he and Woods, the two biggest stars of the early 2000s, could work together to solve the tour’s problems, Mickelson said, “I don’t know.” Let’s take a look. Let’s take a look. “”
“I don’t know about it,” said Mikelson. “I am not involved. I am not sitting in those rooms. I love where I am, what I do, what I play. I let other people understand.”
The exchange with Mickelson wasn’t the only time this week that Woods seemed willing to make amends. He also took a break from practicing on the putting green to congratulate Bryson DeChambeau on his recent U.S. Open victory. It was the first time the former friends had chatted in years, and the tension saddened DeChambeau.
“This is the first time we’ve ever interacted,” DeChambeau said Thursday. “But he’s a competitor and I have a lot of respect for him. I am convinced that the founding of the United States has been discovered and the discovery has definitely helped because of the fact that he said. I don’t know what his position is, but it was very thoughtful and I was grateful for it. “
