Apparently Phil joined Twitter to help promote his big-money PPV match against Tiger Woods which is officially set for Thanksgiving.
JUST IN: Turner has acquired the rights to Tiger Woods vs. Phil Mickelson head-to-head matchup taking place at Shadow Creek in Las Vegas.
The winner will walk away with $9 million.
Pay Per View will be distributed through B/R Live among other platforms.

Of course Phil had to chime and talk some trash because that’s what he does.
I bet you think this is the easiest $9M you will ever make😂

He even went on troll Tiger for posting this picture on his account that featured a pretty glaring mistake.
@TigerWoods I see you have a left-handed driver, well played. I hope it's a Callaway pic.twitter.com/qWuXsGVC6z

Left handed driver? No wonder he's been struggling a bit with hitting fairways! 😝
