Golf's greatest rivalries - Woods vs Mickelson For those that go on stats, this barely constitutes a rivalry. However, when you consider they achieved their feats over the same period, then what both men have managed is mightily impressive. Tiger was the face of the game for almost two decades. He’s won 15 majors, racked up 109 worldwide professional victories, and even had the main golf video game named after him for several years. In that same time, Phil played second fiddle. A role that saw ‘lefty’ accumulate five major titles, 51 worldwide professional wins and represent the USA in 12 consecutive Ryder Cups. Sadly for Mickelson, he never reached the summit of the World Golf Rankings, albeit spending 26 consecutive years inside the Top 50. It’s scary to think what more either man could have achieved without the other standing in their way. Let us know which rivalry stands out for you the most and why by getting in touch here.
