Phil Mickelson reveals how he once used Tony Romo to gain a mental edge on Tiger Woods

On the few occasions Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson were paired together on Sundays during their careers, the rounds never really quite lived up to the hype. There were some outliers, like the 2001 Masters, 2005 at Doral and the front nine of the 2009 Masters, but for the most part, they all fell a little flat.
Perhaps the most notorious of these occasions was the last time they faced off on a Sunday at the 2012 Pebble Beach Pro-Am, when Mickelson trounced Woods by an astounding 11 shots, with Lefty carding a 64 to Woods' 75. While Mickelson's winning performance was still quite the show, it felt a bit deflating for those hoping for an epic duel between the two legends at an iconic course. Woods looked overmatched from the outset, and we may now know whose fault it was: Tony Romo.
Okay, so a lot of the blame has to be placed on Tiger, who played horribly on that overcast Sunday on the Monterrey Peninsula. But, in the latest preview for Tuesday night's episode of HBO&#039..

Soccer star Harry Kane posts video of him achieving an impressive golf milestone

Harry Kane won the Golden Boot for scoring the most goals at the 2018 World Cup, but he shared a different kind of impressive scoring feat on Tuesday. The 25-year-old English soccer star and avid golfer posted video of him sinking a putt to shoot his first under-par round. Check it out:

Well done and congrats, Harry. Although, the hashtags were a bit excessive.
Kane was listed as a 4-handicap in Golf Digest's latest top 100 athletes. Sounds like he could be a bit of a sandbagger, though, so watch out.

Matt Kuchar and Lee Westwood’s coincidental timing, Margot Robbie’s deleted golf photos, and a sad goodbye (to a putting green)

Welcome to another edition of The Grind, where we begin on a somber note. The Golf Digest office is getting renovated and I’m sorry to report not everyone is going to make it. OK, so technically, an office putting green isn’t a person, but she has sure become a vital part of our family with her subtle curves (Except for that one infuriating knob) designed by Jack Nicklaus and that welcoming green gaze you couldn't stay away from after a meeting. Or before a meeting. Or on the way to the bathroom. Or, well, you get the point.
FacebookPinterestFacebookPinterestBut what makes this especially sad is that this is the second office putting green we've had to say goodbye to in three years. How much must one person have to endure?! To be honest, despite a better layout and view, I never quite loved 1 World Links like I loved Royal Wilton. I think that's because I didn't want to get completely heartbroken again. But as a crew gets ready to demolish this popular piece of arti..

Pabst Blue Ribbon could be out of business by next year so start stockpiling

Robert LandauBillboard Advertising Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer (Photo by Robert Landau/Corbis via Getty Images)Boy the world just can't catch a break at the moment can it? As if the jubilee of cataclysms currently assailing the earth weren't enough, you turn to something simple like beer for comfort only to find that PBR—a cheap suds icon and certified hipster calling card—could be dead and gone by New Years. What else do you have for us universe? Does pizza cause cancer now?
On Monday morning, a Pabst-MillerCoors lawsuit opened in Milwaukee County Circuit Court. The plaintiff, Pabst Brewing Company, is suing current business partner MillerCoors, because MillerCoors—who currently brews and distributes the hallowed PBR elixir—does not intend to renew the brand's brewing contract, which expires in 2020. Ordinarily this wouldn't be grounds for a lawsuit, but PBR alleges that not only will they will be forced to liquidate without the partnership, but that they have evidence ..
