Does this look like Phil Mickelson to you?
« on: March 06, 2005, 08:31:27 AM »
I just discovered Phil's new site.
If you watch the opening animation, it begins with the words "Phil Mickelson" with the animated silhouette of a golfer above.

Take a look and tell me...

Who does that golfer look like to you?

That is Tiger Woods flipped to be a lefty...

I bet Phil will be happy when he finds out. ;D

Wow, I can't believe that!  Maybe somebody's attorneys serve Phil with papers just before they tee off this afternoon!

Looks like Tiger to me, too.

I'll bet you dollars to donuts that's just what the developer did - converted footage of Tiger to an animation and flipped it.

There's no mistaking that physique compared to Phil's.

Any bets on how long it stays there?

if someone doesn't like Phil they should tell him about it about 5 minutes before he tees off today..... ;)

I can't believe HE hasn't noticed.

It's as plain as day to anyone who watches golf. If you just keep hitting the refresh, there's no doubt - that's his ultimate rival.

I sent them an email.

This is OT, but I have a little more than a sneaking suspicion Tiger blows past Phil today.

Yesterday, Phil seemed to get away with murder more often than not, and I just wonder, is it time for his luck to run out?  

In contrast, Tiger, for the most part, looked comfortable and swinging the club well.  

Just my thoughts.  We'll see what the afternoon brings.

Looks like a flopped Jonathan Byrd, but if it's Tiger- what a jab by the web designer.

btw-  his old site was much better-  had vid clips and seemed less corporate.  He had several clips of the over the head flop shot out of the bunker that landing on the green behind him.  cool shot.

Is it Phil or Tiger?



Nice Photoshop work on that sleeve too! I bet Callaway told them to make sure it didn't look wrinkled like the Ford one.

Phillipe is right, it is right out of the nike commercial where he bounces the ball on his sandwedge, and then after the last bounce, blasts one. It was the first thing that occurred to me. The more I look at it, the more it confirms my guess, look at where the bottom of the swing is in relation to his feet, it looks to be several inches off the ground, which would tend to confirm that it is lifted off the Nike commercial.

You're right!

I never noticed - but now that you say it, that's it. Sure enough.
