Phil Mickelson vs Tiger Woods….

What a year in golf. We have seen the best golfer in the world become probably the most hated person in the world. Tiger Woods should be first in every tournament. He is the number one golfer in the world. Seeing him become mortal was very humbling. He became someone who will not win every tournament. Now you are seeing the other mortal golfers come to life. You are seeing all the golfers who believe they have the chance to win this tournament believe they can.

Phil Mickelson has now surpassed Tiger now. he is the number one golfer in the world. His tragedies have become a focus point for his success. His beautiful wife and mother fighting cancer has made him see what the world is about. He is a class act and he has but all of his raw emotion into his work. You are also seeing the older golfers play really well on the tour. You are seeing Greg Norman and Tom Player become a force again. Ernie Els is a very classy man who has been playing his best golf in a very long time.

Even all of the young golfers like Jason Choi will compete at this tournament. He will challenge all of the top golfers for the top prize. As we are seeing before our eyes one of the greatest golfers in our time and maybe ever will have to stand up and face his fear of not being the best ever. Tiger will challenge Phil who is on such a roll and has been his best golf in a very long time. Tiger’s short game has been poor in the last tournament where all of the other golfers have been playing there best short games.

I would like to see John Daley play well on this tournament. His drives are so amazing, he might have the best drive i have ever seen. he is such a powerful man you would think he could win more tournaments. As the golf season continues I will be watching how these few players are going to do at the World Series of Golf. Tiger Woods and how he will handle the pressure and believe in himself again. How Ernie Els will play with his great short game. I wonder how Phil will play when the pressure is not on him to win a match. I would like to see Jason Choi but in a great effort.

Amateur players will be able to compete in this tournament and can be competing for the $750,000 dollar prize. The tournament will be on national television on channel NBC. The tournament is simple each player just like poker, has to put up money for each hole. The stakes can be really high because if you lose that hole you will lose your money. If the golfer’s tee shot is a good one for the player he can raise his ante, call his ante or fold if it is a poor shot. The wagers on each hole have to be chosen carefully be cause if your confidence goes down you might make crucial mistakes. In this tournament every shot counts because it could be your last shot. When the player that has no chips left he will be eliminated from the tournament. This is a new way at looking at golf. Each shot is as important as putting up the money for your shot it is like you are playing poker or chess. The winner of each group will go onto the next round until he is the last one standing.

They can win their registration fee back if they can advance to the second round of the tournament. Each golfer has to go through a strict accreditation process so they can see what handicap they are. As they know their handicap, this will pit them against golfers who are at the same level as them. This tournament is so unique because of the large amount of money they can win, but also because the way they have to play. This tournament is just like playing poker as well as playing chess each move is critical.
