Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson to play in same group for 38th time at Zozo Championship
Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson are mostly having a ho-hum week at the Zozo Championship but they’re giving golf fans a nice little treat on Sunday.
As Justin Ray of the 15th Club points out, Tiger and Phil will be grouped in a PGA Tour round for the 38th time in the final round at Sherwood Country Club.
That ties Mickelson with Ernie Els for most rounds played with the Big Cat all-time.
Ernie Els (38)
Phil Mickelson (38)
Vijay Singh (32)
Mark O’Meara (27)
Jim Furyk (26)
They’re going off in threesomes this week at the Zozo, and playing split tees, so the Tiger/Phil group heads out off the 10th tee at 2:28 p.m. ET, 11:28 local time.
As for the third member of the group?
Not sure exactly how many combined wins in this group but it’s a lot, plus one. @PGATOUR @zozo pic.twitter.com/OJuTC3FGPC

That would be Adam Long, giving this group a combined 127 career PGA Tour victories: 82 for Tiger, 44 for Phil and Long’s 2019 Desert Classic title.
Tiger and Phil are also 1-2 on the Tour’s all-time money list, with Long checking in at No. 349.
