Phil Mickelson: That’s the spirit! The short game is where the magic happens. So, any big tournament plans coming up?
Nick Watney: I’m gearing up for the next PGA Tour events. Feeling pretty good about my form right now. What about you? Any more crazy challenges lined up?

Nick Watney: A marathon? Seriously, Phil? That’s intense! I’m sticking with 18 holes, thank you very much. But speaking of which, care to join me for a practice round this weekend?
Phil Mickelson: Absolutely. You know I can’t resist a good practice round. Let’s see if that short game of yours can handle the Lefty’s presence.
