Tiger Woods vs Phil Mickelson live stream: how to watch the golf contest from anywhere
The Thanksgiving holiday is typically associated with Football in the US, but this year legendary golfers Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson have something special planned.
The two golf legends will go head-to-head in a first of its kind 18-hole match play event in Las Vegas at the exclusive Shadow Creek golf course to see who will take home the glory as well as a $9 million cash prize. And you can live stream Woods vs Mickelson from anywhere with this handy guide.
The format of the event, dubbed “The Match”, will be matchplay, which awards a point to a golfer when they win a hole. However, Woods and Mickelson will also be able to challenge each other to additional side bets in the range of $10,000 to $50,000 such as longest drive or closest-to-the-pin at various points throughout the match. In fact, Mickelson already baited Woods into accepting a $200,000 bet that he will birdie the opening hole.
