Is the Tiger Woods, Mickelson Battle for TV #Golf Supremacy Finally Over?

With Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson debuting their PGA Tour golf games at the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines, fans are anxiously awaiting the Battle of the Tried-and-True Superheroes ...or are they?

Online conversations are conflicting about where the most TV action will come from this week- Golf Channel's Facebook page has a proud Tiger Woods accepting his 2013 Player of the Year Award along with Jordan Spieth (Rookie of the Year) with Woods contemplating a new entrant onto the battlefield, "It's going to be fun for a number of years battling it out," Woods was quoted as saying at the ceremony.



With Spieth and Woods teeing off with Jimmy Walker on Thursday, this pairing could most certainly turn into a future Sunday moment...although both Woods and Spieth have their work cut out for them with a pair of even scores on day one.

Expert picks mainly have Tiger Woods as the golfer providing the most action and as the winner this weekend but Woods and Mickelson, "the two biggest stars of their generation" as Fox News aptly states, may not be the only attractions worthy of prime TV time....could Stewart Cink be the man to watch?

Two long hitters, Bubba Watson and Phil Mickelson, will certainly give viewers the action they seek as they tee-off along side of Aussie Jason Day. You can always expect a few fireworks from both left-handed golfers - Mickelson nearly chipped in from the parking lot to make birdie at eighteen while Watson had some chip action of his own on hole number two at Torrey Pines' North Course.


You never know when a new battle will brew or the excitement will kick up a notch - Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson are both great golfers but new rivalries can happen in a heartbeat to create an infusion of excitement into the sport.

Without picking Woods and Mickelson, which golfer do you think will provide the most drama at Torrey Pines this year?

Shoot Under Par By Looking Above Par #golf

Men love to play golf for a number of reasons, but every guy is similar in a few ways. Every man wants to have nice golf clubs, a nice golf bag and attractive, stylish golf clothing for the course.

There are cases when guys wear golf clothing every day because it is casual yet very elegant. Choosing the right kind of golf clothing for men is essential to the personal wardrobe of many men and their look on the course at tee time.

Guys who enjoy wearing golf clothing are not bound to a particular wardrobe. Payne Stewart wore knee-high socks as an homage to the history of the sport. Tiger Woods wears red every Sunday and Adam Scott looks good no matter what he wears. Depending on the guy's sensibilities, there is a line of clothing that will fit perfectly in his closet.

Every man enjoys picking out smart-looking golf shirts. In fact, there are many men who wear golf shirts for work with dress slacks. The sleekest of polo shirts are made from pima cotton with a sheen that makes them look akin to dress shirts. Other polo shirts are a little bit more casual but they still look nice enough for work.

The guy who hits the course in his favorite golf clothing enjoys playing the game more because he feels good in his clothes. Also, the man who doesn't necessarily accessorize in his every day wardrobe has no choice but to accessorize his golf wardrobe.

When a man is choosing his golf wardrobe, he can have a nice golf hat, visor or cap that looks just like what his favorite golfer wears. From the traditional golf cap of Payne Stewart to the Aussie hat of Greg Norman and the visor of Phil Mickelson, every guy can dress like his favorite golfer.

When choosing appropriate golf clothes, men can get all of the clothes that will work for them on the job, on the course and allow them to look good on the course. Golf clothing for gentlemen is a style choice that will stand the test of time.
