This has been easily one of my favorite videos you ever created. Phil and Freddy were the two golfers that inspired me as a 12 year old kid back in 1992. Anyway just a fantastic video and I really hope to see Phil back on the channel!
49 years old, I never thought I would like golf. Picked up the game a month ago and I can't believe I am hooked to the point that I just watch Grant and Phil play 18. If you would of told me 6 weeks ago I would watch this. I would of said not a chance. But yet here I am. Good stuff!
I picked it up at 33 recently. Used to go to the range with my dad, but only played 36 holes total on an actual course. Now, it is all I can think about. It has consumed me.
I have a funny Phil story….the first time we played, he said to me “its so refreshing to play with you. For my entire career i have been the worst driver of the golf ball on tour, and its nice to finally be able to pass that torch on to you. At least I hit it far and crooked”
I'm a 45 year old plus 1 marker who has watched a lot of youtube golf. These two videos have been the best I have ever seen. It's not the tacky everything is fun taking the mickey like a lot of content out there. This was funny but high quality and what makes it great is Phil's encyclopedia of knowledge and wisdom on all areas of the game. As someone who was a devoted Pelz follower I find Phil's contact amazing as I have read all of Pelz books so I understand what he saying but to watch the best example of it ever is fascinating. Forget playing tournaments, I think this sort of content and the way Phil explains all the intricacies of what he is doing will be his biggest impact on golf. Seriously in 5 years if this is regular content, I can see Phil being the biggest sporting influence on youtube in history. Funny, likeable, great banter and for the older people on youtube someone we can relate to culturally. For us that think like Phil and Bryson in terms of very analytical of the game this is the best thing I could imagine. Way more lessons can be learned from these videos with commentary than watching Phil play in a Major. More of this. It would be great if you could do a series of videos with Padraig Harrington as you both think so deeply about the game.
Phil won’t see this but I tell this story often because it illustrates what kind of person he is. Probably 13-14 years ago the week of the Players, my girlfriend at the time and now wife was working at a breakfast place in Ponte Vedra and as she arrived for her shift since she was with me she knew golf and saw that The Phil Mickelson was there with an older gentleman waiting to be sat. She said he was one of the nicest people she ever waited on and when they left he left her a fantastic tip and thanked her by name before he left. First class move and forever cemented my opinion of the greatest left handed golfer of all time. If you are ever in southwest Florida let’s play 18!
@@gregorybenoit8526why should Capital One ‘capitalize?’ …Maybe it’s a way to explode their channels more… maybe? But they also seem to be doing pretty well in their lane gaining access to whoever they want, so… I wonder!
Dod king is the most obnoxious fake personality little manlet on youtube. Theres a reason he has one of the slowest growth rates of any youtube golfer. He does not draw viewers over the age of 18, he is for angsty children and teens. @@jtothac5364
I am 51 and have watched Phil a lot, but now i feel like i have gotten to know him on a personal level. Very enjoyable. I can't wait to see what is next. The lessons he gives Grant and the rest of us are amazing!!
I've been a Phil fan my whole life. My favorite line by him was "A good shot is when you pull it off, a smart shot is when you don't have the guts to try it" Legend!! I want that flag!! :)
Everyone loves the minds games, but my favorite part of these videos (Grant / Bryson / Phil) is the "thought process" behind each shot.....just love it guys!
I was a server at your Birdies For The Brave event in Ponte Vedra years ago. You and your wife thanked every worker personally, and in a real, not fake way! It meant more than any tip I could have gotten! I respect veterans more than just about anything or anyone. And I use to rescue and train and rehome dogs as a hobby in Jacksonville. I would have worked that event for free! YOUR ONE GREAT HUMAN BEING SIR! No matter what anyone says lol THANK YOU for doing that for that veterans!!!
Phil! Thanks so much for doing this video with Grant. Your Open win in 2013 was the last golf my dad saw before he passed away within the following days. I was there next to him and when I told him you won, it was the last smile I saw on his face. You will always be our favorite golfer. Thank you for the memories sir! And, thank you for joining the RUclips golf family.
RUclips is exactly what the game of golf needed right now. It's a perfect canvas for letting fans watch their favorite pros, and getting to see some of their thought process and real personalities come out. Broadcast coverage of tour events and interviews are often a bit too sterile, so it's refreshing to watch this kind of content. Hope to see a lot more from Phil & his team. Great work so far, looking forward to future videos!
started playing a few weeks ago, played my first 18 with some buddies and shot a 99. Goal is to reach the 80s before the summer. A lot of cold days of practice ahead of me. Glad I stumbled upon this channel and grant's, I cant get enough of it!
It was hilarious when Phil said "for the first time I feel like I might actually be wearing joggers" but when they they presented a pair for him to look at, I think that's when Grant was living rent free in Phil's head in the final two holes. One of the greatest 1v1 in RUclips history
That was an exceptional video that I just happened to come across on Grant's channel. Obviously, I came here to watch the back 9 and I have to admit, this was some of the most natural and entertaining content I've watched on RUclips in a long time. I was smiling ear to ear for both videos and I would absolutely love to see more content with the two of you. We'll done gentleman!
what a treat being able to see this laid back but still competitive side of Phil, and just the ease he slips back and forth with staying mentally dialed into his own game but playful and casual enough to banter and mind-fence with Grant. The level of mutual respect between these two different generations of golf, making everything about the game more accessible and engaging, is awesome to see. My dad is a San Diego native and has always been a huge Phil fan, and I grew up being a fan by proxy and being able to watch the rivalry between him and Tiger during that stretch and share that with my dad is something Ill always look back on with deep fondness.
Thanks, Phil Mickelson, for being such a great sport and agreeing to play with Grant, who is one of the nicest RUclips personalities on the internet. As a long time lover of the game (I started playing in the early '60's with my dad. Saw Palmer, Nicklaus, and Champagne Tony Lema play in the Thunderbird Classic in Harrison N.Y.) this was especially entertaining for me. And I know that Grant was thrilled to be playing with one of the greatest golfers of all time.
You've got to love how Phil keeps grant guessing about his suggestions after that first dead flyer comment. Its like a the line between sarcasm and brilliant advice. Love it!
Phil is one of the greatest teachers in golf. I remember he helped me so much with my wedge game when I watched his philosophy on short game. Glad to be part of the channel.
-Pretty sure Phil could roll up to a local muni course, get paired with 3 other 30 handicappers and would be able to have meaningful conversations with all of them AND make them better golfers. Class act and a complete natural in front of the RUclips camera.
It's so heartwarming to watch these two adorable, talented golfers, who apparently look alike ( the younger and older version)according to Grant's wife, enjoying their time together. It truly fills the soul. As a 73 year old golfer you have no idea how wonderful this makes me feel. And I ordered the brownies and gummies. Lol. It sounds like I’m going to have a fun time with my purchases. By the way Phil…those. Joggers will be much more flattering on you than those baggy pants you wore for so many years. 😅
I liked the part when Grant looked up at Phil and said, "I'm having fun again." "Yeah, because I only have fun when I'm playing good". "I struggle with that"... Phil's response.. "I'm getting tight now actually". Too funny.
When Phil explained what shot he was about to hit and what he expected the ball to do, and then to watch it do exactly what he said was mind blowing. The fact that Grant got out of his head and pulled off this comeback was legendary! Excited to see more videos like this.
This was by FAR my favorite pro vs. RUclipsr so far on the internet. Phil is an absolute legend and totally fun with all his games. You can tell how competitive he is yet he's helping and pulling for Grant. Years ago I wasn't the biggest fan of Phil. But after seeing him in long form content where he can be himself I believe now he is a total class act and a solid dude. Well done Grant, you are a class act as always. Amazing what you've accomplished. What a ride!!
I met Phil at the 1997 US Open at Congressional . He was so gracious to the fans during the Wednesday practice rounds, he had his caddy toting around SOOOOO many golf balls and he was signing them like crazy, making sure every young fan got a ball. Perfect example of how to engage young players!
Phil was so kind to my son and I at Riviera 15 years ago, such a great guy! And Grant is the best RUclipsr in the golf realm, bar none. So awesome to have them together for this round, really made my day!
I love the fact that Phil is walking through his mindset for how he approaches each shot. Even giving is insight on each of Grant’s shots. Great work Fellas!!!!
Met Phil at the Masters probably 20 years ago. He was far and away one of the most personable players and really went above and beyond to interact with the crowd. Been a fan ever since.
I just want to see Phil in Primo joggers at the Open Championship... Go Grant! Two holes into my viewing experience and I gotta say, there is a lot of golf wisdom being imparted unto Grant here. Kudos Phil. Swing mechanics are great, but the mental game and strategy is crucial to playing your best game.
One of the best fun videos of the year Grant. The way Phil was smirking and trying to get you to think was great. Can’t wait for the 2V2’s. I have to add something though. You can’t forget AMATEURS. I KNOW you would get some great competition from people that aren’t pros or celebrities that can golf really well and matter of fact, 3 hole in ones also😮😮 So with that said you have to give an “Old Man” a chance one day.
Watching Phil play and share his thoughts is priceless for us golf fans and players. Grant has a great game and is making watching Utube golf so entertaining and educational. Kudos to both. Need to see some combination of Phil, Grant and the BryanBros! Let’s see a 2 vs 2: Phil/Grant vs George/Wesley. I would pay to see that!
Easily the most fun I’ve had watching any RUclips golf. Phil’s tactics on hole 1 really set this tense stage for the entire two videos and Grant rose to the occasion. Brilliant.
What a match! The descriptive history of this course by Phil brings back wonderful memories of the greatest weekly golf series, “Shell’s Wonderful World of Golf.” Both these channels are right up there… and the convo is a tremendous bonus. Thanks so much to both of you.
I am so glad you are doing this Phil. Love the RUclipsr golfer, but people like you and Bryson, because of your experiences and skill level can bring a dimension that is simply fascinating. Thank you for taking the time.
As a left-handed golfer, this video means that much more to me. Don't get to see a lot of representation on RUclips, especially at the high-level skill and thinking that Phil brings to the table. Thanks for the collaboration and looking forward to more content :D
Awesome to see a legend group up with the best golfer on RUclips, share his knowledge and show that he cares about the younger generation of golfers. Love the energy, Phil!!!
Phil you are my hero. I absolutely loved watching this episode. I started playing golf just over 3 years ago and boy did it hit me hard. I moved to San Diego California from Portland Oregon on August 15th 2021 and since then I have played over 400 rounds of golf. I'm now 46 years old and I have managed to get my handicap down to 4.3 and just two days ago got my first ace. It was a 181 yard hole, I pulled a 6 iron, hit a cut into a back right pin, it took two small bounces and dropped. I think the only thing that could top that would be to come out to Rancho Santa Fe for a round with you. I don't normally comment on videos but when you said you wanted to invite some regular Joe's to play with you I just had to give you a holler. Love your channel and keep it up. We love seeing this side of you.
So great to hear Phil articulate his thinking in real time on every shot. I'm a lefty golfer and been pulling for Phil for years but this opens a whole new level with Lefty! Thanks Grant and Phil! Keep it coming!
Grant touched on it a bit in his video, but the coolest part about these pros getting into the YT scene is really seeing them for who they are outside of the high stakes/pressure environments. Fun to see as a casual fan!
The way Phil talks through every shot it's unreal to hear they way he goes about his round ... Two class golfers And two class guys Can't wait for more...
Great match guys. I’m a 71 year old Lettie that has been playing (poorly) for over 40 yeas. I love what Phil has done for the game and Grant on you tube.i practice my chipping and putting at least an hour a day. Not long off the tee so I wear my playing mates out around the green. I’ll be playing this wonderful game until I take my last breath! Semper Paratus guys and that flag would look good on my golf man cave wall!
Thanks for joining RUclips Phil! As a SD native, you’ve always been my favorite golfer and so excited to see one of my bucket list courses, Rancho Santa Fe GC on video as this will probably be the closest I ever get to playing it… Although I am a legitimate 3.1 handicap and I’m ready on call to be on an episode of pro’s vs. schmo’s 🤞 Good luck at the Open and those calves are gonna pop in those joggers!!
Seeing Phil and other professionals in this setting vs being on tv playing in a tournament gives me a better liking to them seeing them as normal dudes not somebody who is just crazy good at golf on my tv
So awesome to see you getting into RUclips. To be able to get yours and Bryson’s golf knowledge in such an open forum is what makes these RUclips channels so great!
This match was great not only for Grant and Phil, but also great for the golfers watching trying to learn and soak up information from one of the greats
Listening to Phil’s thought process as he concocts his shot and why, is pure art. The club is his brush and the course is his canvas. He has a great mind. It’s beautiful to watch, and unbelievably educational. The problem is, when you play w him, you start to think like him, and when you start to think like him, you start trying to play like him. Which is impossible lol. Phil is one of the best shot makers of all time. This dive in between his ears is a real treat. Grant mentions Phil reminds him of Bryson because of his finely tuned process, but they really are totally opposite. Bryson plugs numbers into his machine and presses play. Very impressive, but phil is like a musician, creating rhythms w the course. He hits the shot that is in sync w the course, the shot the hole is calling for. After phil birdies a hole, it wants to cuddle in bed for hours. After Bryson birdies a hole, it smokes a cigarette and leaves. Thanks, both of you. Love the channels.
That Open Championship flag signed by Phil and Phil's son would look so good on the wall by my practice green!!! Great video. You guys are so entertaining together.
Way to go, Grant! You deserve to win! I wasn’t impressed when Phil argued to get more strokes out of you before the match begin, but I was proud of how you held your ground and kept the five strokes that you felt you deserved! I also didn’t like how Phil tricked you and deceived you on the first hole. He took advantage of your lack of knowledge of that course. The fact that you could play as well as you did on a course that you didn’t know, and that was a favorite of his is simply amazing. You are a great golfer and very humble one to boot. Keep your wonderful personality hust the way it is. You’re a great golfer without being a show off! You showed so much more class than Phil did today it was simply amazing to see the difference!
What a finish to this match! Thanks again Phil, can’t wait for the rematch👀
Enjoyed this series! Today is my birthday, and I've been playing Golf just at a year now. Really enjoy all your content, @GrantHorvatGolfs

I feel like everyone is resistant to golf until they give it a try, then majority of people get hooked lol
It’s never to late mate🏌️♂️👍
Same feeling here
I picked it up at 33 recently. Used to go to the range with my dad, but only played 36 holes total on an actual course. Now, it is all I can think about. It has consumed me.
49 here and a year in… I feel the same way 😂

You Tube is perfect for Phil, because you can't find a human on the planet that enjoys talking about what they are going to do more than Phil.

Phil calling Grant a "Handsome Stallion" is absolutely hilarious 😂😂😂
Grant thinks he is a young Phil, with his looks and short game... And he is!
Only because Grant said his wife thinks he looks like Phil, so in true Phil fashion he is basically calling himself a handsome stallion 😂
just heard that line and scrolled down to this
Especially after he told Phil that his gf thinks he looks like him lol
need the flag
It was hilarious when Phil said "for the first time I feel like I might actually be wearing joggers" but when they they presented a pair for him to look at, I think that's when Grant was living rent free in Phil's head in the final two holes. One of the greatest 1v1 in RUclips history

I'm afraid he makes them quit golfing
Love seeing Phil outside of a tournament just having fun. Great video keep them coming
Phil fits perfectly in this RUclips golf space! Good vibes and comfortable on camera. Love the content and I’m excited to see what he does next
It's so heartwarming to watch these two adorable, talented golfers, who apparently look alike ( the younger and older version)according to Grant's wife, enjoying their time together.

I’m convinced if I played just one round with Phil, I’d shoot like 10-12 strokes lower just with his knowledge. It’s incredible
If he wasn't trying to deceive you like he Grant on hole 1.
Started playing golf about a month ago at 35 and love it. Seeing videos like these are very enjoyable and encouraging.
Phil Mickelson tricking Grant into using the wrong club and then laughing about it, is the best part of this video. 😂😂😂 I WANT THAT FLAG!!
I liked the part when Grant looked up at Phil and said, "I'm having fun again." "Yeah, because I only have fun when I'm playing good". "I struggle with that"... Phil's response.. "I'm getting tight now actually". Too funny.
I love seeing these legends being more casual. RUclips golf is getting better every month.
So pleased to see Phil on YT, what a great character and wonderful to see both guys relaxing and bantering back and forth - hilarious and brilliant!
When Phil explained what shot he was about to hit and what he expected the ball to do, and then to watch it do exactly what he said was mind blowing. The fact that Grant got out of his head and pulled off this comeback was legendary! Excited to see more videos like this.
Phil describing what he's thinking during a shot is like the math teacher skipping steps in the equation cuz they already solved the problem

So awesome that some of these professional golfers take their time off to play with these young RUclips golfers. Phill is a amazing person.
Phil’s knowledge of the game with a mix of his sense of humor is content gold.

I love the fact that Phil is walking through his mindset for how he approaches each shot. Even giving is insight on each of Grant’s shots. Great work Fellas!!!!
Phil is giving Grant a master class in course management.It's truly on another level. And Grant is soaking it in to good effect.
I really enjoy watching the 2 of you talk through the round!
Met Phil at the Masters probably 20 years ago. He was far and away one of the most personable players and really went above and beyond to interact with the crowd. Been a fan ever since.

One of the best fun videos of the year Grant. The way Phil was smirking and trying to get you to think was great. Can’t wait for the 2V2’s. I have to add something though. You can’t forget AMATEURS. I KNOW you would get some great competition from people that aren’t pros or celebrities that can golf really well and matter of fact, 3 hole in ones also😮😮 So with that said you have to give an “Old Man” a chance one day.

“The object of golf is not just to win. It is to play like a gentleman, and win.” Great video!
I’m an old guy 82 still play once or twice a week Grant was the first guy I signed up for on RUclips tv .welcome Phil to the channel .
Watching Phil play and share his thoughts is priceless for us golf fans and players. Grant has a great game and is making watching Utube golf so entertaining and educational. Kudos to both. Need to see some combination of Phil, Grant and the BryanBros! Let’s see a 2 vs 2: Phil/Grant vs George/Wesley. I would pay to see that!
The people need more Phil content - man is a certified electric factory
Phil, awesome of you to do this with Grant!! Really fun to watch and made me even a bigger fan!
Easily the most fun I’ve had watching any RUclips golf. Phil’s tactics on hole 1 really set this tense stage for the entire two videos and Grant rose to the occasion. Brilliant.
What a match! The descriptive history of this course by Phil brings back wonderful memories of the greatest weekly golf series, “Shell’s Wonderful World of Golf.” Both these channels are right up there… and the convo is a tremendous bonus. Thanks so much to both of you.
I am so glad you are doing this Phil. Love the RUclipsr golfer, but people like you and Bryson, because of your experiences and skill level can bring a dimension that is simply fascinating. Thank you for taking the time.
As a left-handed golfer, this video means that much more to me. Don't get to see a lot of representation on RUclips, especially at the high-level skill and thinking that Phil brings to the table. Thanks for the collaboration and looking forward to more content :D
Awesome to see a legend group up with the best golfer on RUclips, share his knowledge and show that he cares about the younger generation of golfers. Love the energy, Phil!!!
Phil you are my hero. I absolutely loved watching this episode. I started playing golf just over 3 years ago and boy did it hit me hard. I moved to San Diego California from Portland Oregon on August 15th 2021 and since then I have played over 400 rounds of golf. I'm now 46 years old and I have managed to get my handicap down to 4.3 and just two days ago got my first ace. It was a 181 yard hole, I pulled a 6 iron, hit a cut into a back right pin, it took two small bounces and dropped. I think the only thing that could top that would be to come out to Rancho Santa Fe for a round with you. I don't normally comment on videos but when you said you wanted to invite some regular Joe's to play with you I just had to give you a holler. Love your channel and keep it up. We love seeing this side of you.
Phil & Grant vs Wes & George at Salina? The SH*T talking will be EPIC!!
So great to hear Phil articulate his thinking in real time on every shot. I'm a lefty golfer and been pulling for Phil for years but this opens a whole new level with Lefty! Thanks Grant and Phil! Keep it coming!
Grant touched on it a bit in his video, but the coolest part about these pros getting into the YT scene is really seeing them for who they are outside of the high stakes/pressure environments. Fun to see as a casual fan!
You guys have a Gr8 match going!! Let’s go Phil!! Looking forward to more Gr8 content on your channel!!
Phil’s channel is about to be in my regular rotation
I wanna see Phil and Grant vs Wesley and George, the trash talking would be insane
Phil’s charisma just went up +9000
Definitely becoming a Phil fan watching content like this!
The way Phil talks through every shot it's unreal to hear they way he goes about his round ... Two class golfers
And two class guys
Can't wait for more...
Hearing a legend like Phil Mickelson being genuinely impressed with how well Grant played that back 9…awesome stuff
Man, so complimentary of each other, loved the content and loved how easy it was to watch! Thanks Phil and Grant
Grant hitting -3 on the back 9 after seeing him broken after just 1 hole is actually phenomenal 🙌🏻
Great to see you guys together! Amazing banter, mutual respect, and good golf!
Great match guys. I’m a 71 year old Lettie that has been playing (poorly) for over 40 yeas. I love what Phil has done for the game and Grant on you tube.i practice my chipping and putting at least an hour a day. Not long off the tee so I wear my playing mates out around the green. I’ll be playing this wonderful game until I take my last breath! Semper Paratus guys and that flag would look good on my golf man cave wall!
The melancholy music on 18 when a 50 year old man realized he is wearing joggers at the British open 😂
*54
This has to be one of the best days of Grant's life. Can't wait for the rematch when Phil actually plays without sandbagging him!
Come on...how great is it to see two guys who have never met, just have fun on a beautiful day together on the golf course!
9:58 Phil thinking to himself”did grant just sit on his sandwich” 😂😂😂
lmao. "thats a problem" I didnt even notice that
I saw that I can't believe Phil left that alone... That sandwich looked a lot like a burrito...
@@Bluntobject 🤣🤣🤣 I thought the same especially since Phil loves talking trash
As a Lefty myself, i grew up glued to Phil's game. Great match and keep flying high!
Thanks for joining RUclips Phil! As a SD native, you’ve always been my favorite golfer and so excited to see one of my bucket list courses, Rancho Santa Fe GC on video as this will probably be the closest I ever get to playing it… Although I am a legitimate 3.1 handicap and I’m ready on call to be on an episode of pro’s vs. schmo’s 🤞
Good luck at the Open and those calves are gonna pop in those joggers!!
You guys are literally the best! You make me strive to be a better golfer and person!
I'm so glad these golfers are opening up on youtube. It's so fun to watch and learn.
Seeing Phil and other professionals in this setting vs being on tv playing in a tournament gives me a better liking to them seeing them as normal dudes not somebody who is just crazy good at golf on my tv
So awesome to see you getting into RUclips. To be able to get yours and Bryson’s golf knowledge in such an open forum is what makes these RUclips channels so great!
holy crap. that was a great show. thank you gentlemen!!!! i learn so much just watching two find people playing golf
This match was great not only for Grant and Phil, but also great for the golfers watching trying to learn and soak up information from one of the greats
Phils pre shot routine and thought process is so good, Phil and grant vs Bryson and Garret - please
I love that Phil's cart doesn't beep in reverse.
And 40mph
This was epic!!!!! Phil is a natural at this RUclips thing. Explaining every shot and thought process. Absolute LEGEND!!!!
Phil driving up to the 18th green, seen your ball at 3ft “ahhh f***in joggers” 😂😂😂
It was scripted
@@1974jrod😂
Listening to Phil’s thought process as he concocts his shot and why, is pure art. The club is his brush and the course is his canvas. He has a great mind. It’s beautiful to watch, and unbelievably educational. The problem is, when you play w him, you start to think like him, and when you start to think like him, you start trying to play like him. Which is impossible lol. Phil is one of the best shot makers of all time. This dive in between his ears is a real treat. Grant mentions Phil reminds him of Bryson because of his finely tuned process, but they really are totally opposite. Bryson plugs numbers into his machine and presses play. Very impressive, but phil is like a musician, creating rhythms w the course. He hits the shot that is in sync w the course, the shot the hole is calling for. After phil birdies a hole, it wants to cuddle in bed for hours. After Bryson birdies a hole, it smokes a cigarette and leaves. Thanks, both of you. Love the channels.
That Open Championship flag signed by Phil and Phil's son would look so good on the wall by my practice green!!!
Great video. You guys are so entertaining together.
Way to go, Grant! You deserve to win! I wasn’t impressed when Phil argued to get more strokes out of you before the match begin, but I was proud of how you held your ground and kept the five strokes that you felt you deserved! I also didn’t like how Phil tricked you and deceived you on the first hole. He took advantage of your lack of knowledge of that course. The fact that you could play as well as you did on a course that you didn’t know, and that was a favorite of his is simply amazing. You are a great golfer and very humble one to boot. Keep your wonderful personality hust the way it is. You’re a great golfer without being a show off! You showed so much more class than Phil did today it was simply amazing to see the difference!
