The previous year’s winner of the Masters gets the privilege of selecting the menu for the past champions’ dinner. In 2005, Mickelson, winner in 2004, selected “lobster ravioli in a tomato cream sauce, Caesar’s salad and garlic bread at the champions dinner,” according to TGC.

Well, this year, Mickelson has selected a menu that sounds a lot higher in cholesterol and fat content: “southern fried chicken, baby back ribs, beef brisket and smoked sausage. If that’s not enough, vanilla ice cream will be served for dessert.” (More here)

I hate to be cynical about this selection, but the high red meat content plus the fried chicken can’t be all that appealing to the health conscious players like Tiger Woods. I mean, c’mon, who eats “beef brisket” today? Mickelson must know that this meat-heavy menu won’t be appealing to Tiger (who has 5% body fat). Tiger’s long been on record that he’s cut out (or reduced) fried chicken and fatty meats from his diet. Hopefully, they will at least serve salad so Tiger won’t go home hungry.
