He has a great record. Is great on the Seniors tour now and has his moments on the PGA.

Last win 2 years ago, last major 2013, only two wins since then. In 2021 he’s missed the cut more than finishing so far. He belongs on the Champions tour before he starts embarrassing himself even more. Yawn...

Tiger did it in 2019. Phil and Tiger are well known rivals. Phil hits it longer than Tiger, he likes bombs. Phil is in better shape as well.

Thanks for the statistics Middler.

I’m indifferent as fans go on Tiger but - Phil isn’t in the same league as Tiger, not even close now or ever.

We will see when both are on the Senior tour, or to be PC the Champs tour.Tiger is 7 or so  years younger and yes has more wins but they were the top rivalry in golf for many years. Phil is much better to watch and listen to for TV and in person, better personality.

I have been a long time Phil fan and look forward to seeing him battle it out with many of the Champions Tour players I grew up with.  It would be a blast seeing he and Tiger back at it once again but under slightly less taxing venues.  To be honest, I've grown to like the Champions Tour as much as the main tours - men's and women's.  Most of this can be attributed to my involvement with the Boeing Classic from its inaugural year 2005 thru 2015 - the last one before I retired and we relocated.  I love the low key aspects of these events and that, even on gorgeous weather weekend rounds, one can readily follow players around or find fun spots around the track to watch.
