Relationship between Phil Mickelson and Woods

Mickelson and Woods had a stable relationship with each other. They both used every opportunity to trash-talk at each other. However, everything changed after they participated in the 2016 Ryder Cup together. After the event, the duo began to play together for private events like The Match: Champions for Charity.
