PARAMUS, N.J. – Phil Mickelson fiddled with his cellphone as he clumsily searched through Twitter like a man trying to get dressed in the dark.

The 48-year-old could be forgiven for his social media ineptitude, Lefty had joined the Twitter world just hours earlier and was being peppered with questions from reporters about a recent post announcing details, officially, about his upcoming made-for-television match against Tiger Woods.

“You’re going to have give me a minute,” he laughed.

Nor should it be any surprise that the father of three never found what he was looking for (insert millennial eye-roll here).
