Report: Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson head-to-head golf event set for Thanksgiving weekend

Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson will face off in their head-to-head event over Thanksgiving weekend at Shadow Creek Golf Course in Las Vegas, according to a report Thursday by ESPN’s “Get Up” host Mike Greenberg.

The event has not been formally announced, but it was first reported in July that Mickelson and Woods were planning a winner-take-all, 18-hole match-play.

Early reports put the purse for the event at $10 million, but ESPN reported Thursday the purse has yet to be determined.

Greenberg reported the matchup between Mickelson and Woods would either be Friday, Nov. 23 or Saturday, Nov. 24.
