Watch: The Mocking Word Phil Mickelson Used to Describe Eli Manning's Swing

Phil Mickelson joins Jack Nicklaus as the fastest to four Champions Tour wins but his finest moments came on the Monday Night Football broadcast.

Phil Mickelson made PGA Tour Champions history, joining Jack Nicklaus as the fastest player to reach four wins with his victory at the season finale. However, his best work came the following evening when he joined the Super Bowl Champion Manning bros on commentary. Perhaps the only place Lefty is more comfortable than around the greens is in the booth and it seems to be a natural next step. 

Collin Morikawa joins a short list of American golfers to receive an honorary lifetime membership on the European Tour. He's also in prime position to start a list of his own by becoming the first American-born player to win the European Tour's season long Race to Dubai. 

Speaking of Dubai, it was Rory McIlory who grabbed the lead after 18-holes following his comments committing to reducing his carbon footprint. The four-time major winner plans to spend $200,000 to offset emissions from his private flights, further bolstering his reputation as the ultimate good guy on Tour. 

Let's not forget about Bernhard Langer who clinched his sixth Charles Schwab Cup thanks to a final-round stumble by Jim Furyk. Your host, Colin McDonald has it all for you in this week's episode of Up and Down.
