Phil Mickelson gives his formula for success to help him and Tom Brady take down Tiger Woods and Peyton Manning in The Match: Champions for Charity.

The weather did not cooperate, but that was about the only thing that went wrong Sunday during The Match: Champions for Charity.

As Phil Mickelson, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Tiger Woods held an oversized cardboard check with a total of $20 million written in, they were soaking wet but smiling.

For the first time in 98 days, we got to see Woods in action.

Woods shot 77 at Riviera Country Club on Feb.

Mickelson gave a vintage description of how he would play a pitch shot early in the match when on-course reporter Justin Thomas asked him about it; was clearly on-brand when he gave a shoutout to one of his sponsors on a long-drive hole, then promptly airmailed his tee shot left into the trees; seemed to take great joy in zipping around in his golf cart; then launched a tee shot onto the par-4 11th to set up an eagle putt by Brady; and generally seemed to enjoy himself.

The weather didn't help, and Brady got off to a shaky start.

Even after taking a penalty stroke on the par-5 seventh hole, he holed a 100-yard wedge shot -- while his pants split and his microphone broke -- to earn a $100,000 donation from Brooks Koepka, who wondered if Brady could even make a par.

And on the back nine, as he and Mickelson attempted to rally, Brady was solid, helping keep his team in the match.

And he hit some great shots, making an early birdie putt to put his team 2-up and hitting a great iron approach shot late to help keep the team 1-up.

It also had numerous technical glitches, and with just Woods and Mickelson involved, lacked the banter we saw Sunday.

Next time, put Tiger and Phil together.

This time, Tiger, Phil, Manning and Brady doubled that amount in a similar event.
