The third edition of The Match takes place today. What started as a high-stakes showdown between two of the greatest players in the history of the game has morphed into a jovial exhibition that supports a good cause. Phil Mickelson is the only professional golfer playing today but he will be joined by three stars from other sports: Charles Barkley, Stephen Curry and Peyton Manning.
While we won't see Tiger Woods, Barkley's sharp wit and Curry's adeptness in another athletic pursuit (don't forget, he once shot 71 on the Korn Ferry Tour) will be welcomed additions. Mickelson's all-world recovery skills will be put to the test, as well, as he partners with Barkley in today's modified alternate shot.
Before The Match: Champions for Change - which is supporting Historically Black Colleges and Universities - gets underway, let's take a peek inside the bags of today's competitors.
