It's, in a way, the ultimate gamble.

And so, of course, it appeals to the ultimate gambler, Phil Mickelson.

Billy Walters, who it should be noted, was known as the greatest sports better of all time.

I can't believe that Phil Mickelson did this.

He's never going to get into the Baseball Hall of Fame.

I do think it's worth noting here that Billy Walters himself went to prison for insider trading.

He is personally mad at Phil for reasons we'll get into later.

And so what he says should be taken with some hefty grains of salt.

Yes, they were allegedly on the board of a company together.

And by allegedly, I mean that Phil Mickelson tweeted that before deleting that tweet.

And at some point during their conversations...

Big Jim tells Phil about this company he's starting with his son and a bunch of other guys called Sable Offshore to go get this old oil project from Exxon back online.

And over the last few months, if any of you follow Phil Mickelson on Twitter or Exxon,

you will see that Phil has tweeted hundreds of times.

It's basically his identity now.

Yes, he just tweets about like Gavin Newsom and California and Sable Offshore because he's a big investor in this company.

And Pablo, I know it might sound kind of outlandish, but what you should understand is that for a minute,

That seemed like an incredible bet.

The kind of bet that could allow you to retire from the Live Tour or at least switch from the Live Tour to the PGA Tour.

Because Sable started getting some momentum.
