The video unfolds with Phil Mickelson, the seasoned golf veteran, confidently striding up to a seemingly straightforward putt during a casual practice session along side DeChambeau. However, beneath that calm demeanour lies a mischievous plan in the making. With a sly grin, Phil decides to talk on to his fellow golfer, Bryson DeChambeau, in hopes of convincing him to hand over the three and a half foot putt to him. He slyly plays the Ryder Cup card, reminding Bryson of the times when Sergio Garcia, the legendary Ryder Cup competitor, generously gifted him similar putts.
