‘Unfinished Business’: When Phil Mickelson Sent Out a Warning Message for His ‘The Match’ Opponents While Teaming Up With Tom Brady in 2020

‘

The Match’ has always been an exciting spectacle for both golf fans as well as football fans. However, the only thing more joyful than the exhibition match play golf challenge is the build-up to it. Last year, ahead of the fourth edition of ‘The Match’, Phil Mickelson sent out a tweet warning his opponents Aaron Rodgers and Bryson DeChambeau. Let’s take a look at what the 6 time Major winner had to say.

Mickelson has been a frequent competitor of the annual charity event since its inauguration in 2018. After defeating his longtime rival Tiger Woods in the very first edition, Phil was teamed up with the 7 time Super Bowl winner, Tom Brady, in 2020. However, they lost to the team of Woods and former Indianapolis Colts quarterback, Peyton Manning.

Following the thrilling loss, Mickelson and Brady were left unsettled with the result. Nonetheless, a year later in 2021, the golfer-quarterback duo had another chance to retaliate, with Phil even sending out a warning to their opponents.

Like any other edition of ‘The Match’, the 2021 version of the exhibition competition also had plenty of trash talk during the lead-up to the event. But among many of those trash talk came a warning from Mickelson, who revealed he and Tom Brady were out for revenge.

The Hall of Famer tweeted, “Tom and I have some unfinished business. Unfortunately it will be at Bryson and Aaron’s expense”. Seeing a tweet from the 6-time Major winner must have been terrifying for many, but it wasn’t for the team of Aaron Rodgers and Bryson DeChambeau.

After all the back and forth, when both teams finally showed up at The Reserve in Montana, the Green Bay Packers quarterback along with DeChambeau had the final laugh. The pair played well enough to guarantee a victory by the 16th hole, as they were up by three. They convincingly defeated the Mickelson-Brady duo by a score of 3&2.

Unfortunately for Phil Mickelson, he remained without a win, while being paired with his NFL buddy. However, as far as Brady’s record is concerned, he won the latest edition of ‘The Match’ earlier this year, while teaming up with arch-rival, Aaron Rodgers. The National Conference quarterback duo took over the pair of  American Conference quarterbacks, Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen.

Maybe sometime in the future, the dream team of Mickelson and Brady will eventually end their losing streak. What do you think about the pair? Share your thoughts in the comments section below.
