Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson have a cool relationship. It’s not outright hatred, but they don’t really care for each other.
It shouldn’t be a surprise that Mickelson had fun at Woods’ expense Wednesday. He obviously noted the furor created by Woods’ Q/A video with fans this week.
Rex Hoggard writes in GolfChannel.com:
Phil Mickelson is not one to ever miss the subtly of the moment, so when he entered the Quail Hollow press room Wednesday afternoon he deadpanned, “Didn’t you guys see my video?”
It was classic Lefty and a not-so-subtle jab at Tiger Woods, who skipped this week’s pre-tournament news conference at the Wells Fargo Championship and instead posted a video on his website answering questions he’d received from fans via social media.
Steve Elling of CBSSportsline.com did a tweet noting Hunter Mahan also piled on Woods:
“I was going to announce that I am doing this only on webcasts from now on.”
