Tiger Woods is one of the greatest sporting icons around the world. Most certainly, his admiration and respect in the United States among other athletes and even around the world is incredible. From NFL stars to NBA legends, some of the best athletes in the world have often praised Tiger and expressed their fondness for the 15-time major championship winner. 

Like Tiger, Phil Mickelson, too, one of the prominent golfers today, has a great relationship with some of the NFL stars and hence, is a notable name in the United States as well. In fact, NFL star Peyton Manning once even revealed that Tiger and Phil had snap counts named after them in the Indianapolis Colts team.

Furthermore, he said that Tiger always loved it, and he could hear it and ask if Tiger was still on one? Meanwhile, this confused the opposing defenses as they did not figure out what exactly did it mean, given they had no reference for the same. “We’d say it a lot. Tiger, Tiger, Phil, Phil, but they could never figure it out,” said Peyton.

When Peyton revealed the same to Phil Mickelson and asked him how did it feel? The lefty replied, “Like a Hall of Fame Player.” Notably, Mickelson was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2012. However, Tiger Woods got inducted into the same recently in 2022. 

Certainly, this shows the dominance the two golfers have exhibited over the years. It also speaks for the impact that they have had, not just in golf, but all across the world of sports.
