Phil Mickelson drags Charles Barkley to victory over Peyton Manning, Stephen Curry in The Match

Mickelson and the NBA Hall of Famer cruised to a 4-and-3 win over Peyton Manning and Stephen Curry at Stone Canyon Golf Club in Arizona, confirming that having a professional golfer on your side can make up for a lot of mistakes in a foursome.
