Mickelson and Woods no longer see eye to eye. There was a time when those two played side by side but over the year the differences divided them more and more. And things have changed so much now. Currently, Woods has assumed the prestigious role of a board director on the PGA Tour while Mickelson is facing gambling allegations of millions of dollars. With their latest situation and their representation of different tours who are sworn enemies of each other, fans are more polarized than ever.

And LIV Golf has used this opportunity to ignite the fierce debate on the internet once again. LIV Nation has tweeted “I’ll concede that Tiger Woods is the greatest golfer of his generation. However, Phil Mickelson has without a doubt proven that he is the most impactful golfer.” And this has left fans once again lending their support to the player they think is the best in the comments.

Though fans are in support of Mickelson as well, they are also angry at him for tearing apart the PGA Tour with his move to LIV Golf.

Previous face off of Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson

Though Woods and Mickelson don’t compete against each other anymore, a decade ago fans witnessed their multiple face-offs. They went against each other at the 2001 Masters where Woods won. Then they were paired at the 2004 Ryder Cup for two matches which they lost. They were against each other on many occasions after that like Ford Championship, Deutsche Band Championship, and others. Their last faceoff happened in 2018 at ‘The Match’ where Mickelson won over Woods.

Both the players have sufficient reasons to claim the title of being the greatest. Woods is only leading at one place with 15 majors under his belt while Mickelson has 6 majors which is the second most for anyone. The question of who is the best or most impactful might be up for debate but what is not up for debate is that both players have made incredible contributions to the sport.
