Phil Mickelson is 2-1 in his three appearances in "The Match." Can he improve to 3-1 with Tom Brady on his side, or will the duo once again fall, this time at the hands of Bryson DeChambeau and Aaron Rodgers?
That's what golf fans will want to know as the one-day event arrives.
Even without Tiger Woods available, this event is a star-studded one. Mickelson, 51, became the oldest player to win a major when he captured the PGA Championship in May. DeChambeau was in the running to repeat as U.S. Open champion in June before a brutal back nine on the tournament's final day.
