Poor Rick. Poor Adam.

His caddie loosened the flag from the 18th pin as a symbol of victory Sunday at The Players Championship, and Phil Mickelson added a personal touch. After playing one of his tidiest rounds on one of the most intimidating golf courses, Mickelson signed his name at the bottom of the note and handed it to his new swing coach, Butch Harmon. Arms around each other's shoulders, they walked up the hill toward the sprawling clubhouse for the trophy presentation, another sign that Mickelson might be on the rise.
"What's most exciting is I feel like we're just getting started," Mickelson said.

Phil visited Butch, and talked to him about working together. Phil sees the flags that Tiger has signed for Butch hanging on the wall, one for each major.
Phil politely declines to work with Butch.
Why can't I find it? I am pretty sure it was in one of the major golf magazines (Golf Digest, Golf Magazine).
On one hand, you have a group of people whose value is as overrated as they are insecure. On the other hand, you have a group of people... with exactly the same characteristics.
Truly, they deserve each other.
