Featured Columnist Andy Reistetter is on site in Charlotte, North Carolina for the Quail Hollow Championship.

Good morning, this is Andy Reistetter from the Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina.

 

The 11th president of the United States, James Polk was born within a few miles of where I am standing.

 

One of his successors, Abraham Lincoln was at the helm of our country when the War Between the States broke out at Fort Sumter in South Carolina.

 

Maybe you haven't noticed, but a struggle is breaking out between Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods to be the No. 1 golfer in the world. Woods may have 14 major titles but Phil won the last one at Augusta National two weeks ago.

 

Tiger won here at Quail Hollow three years ago. Phil has consistently contended with four Top 10s and a T12 in six years though never winning here.

 

Welcome to the Battle of Quail Hollow.

 

World No. 2 Phil Mickelson going head-to-head against World No. 1 Tiger Woods on a golf course that feels major-like. Major-like in design, condition, and tournament atmosphere.

 

There's a strong field here at Quail Hollow leading into THE PLAYERS Championship next week on the Stadium Course at TPC Sawgrass. World No. 3 Steve Stricker is on the sideline this week with a nagging soreness in his chest. World No. 4 Lee Westwood is here. He is comfortable wearing the crown of "best player to have never won a Major." Maybe he knows it is a temporary sort of thing.

 

Sooner or later it ends whether or not you win a major. Just ask Sergio Garcia.
