"Butch Harmon: From 1993 on, they helped put each other on the map. Back in 2000-01, when Woods was coining the phrase ""Tiger Slam,"" Harmon was the man in his corner. Then, in 2004, Woods began seeking advice from Hank Haney. Harmon said Woods was ""in denial"" about his game and wild driving.Woods responded, ""I don't understand why he would say anything like that, especially when we've been close. He does not know what I'm working on. I don't understand where he is coming from. It doesn't do himself or anyone any good to do that."" Of course, Harmon didn't stop. Instead, he started coaching Phil Mickelson, and in the process he added more kindling to the Tiger-Phil storyline. In 2013, Harmon said that he didn't like being referred to as ""Tiger's ex-coach,"" which is like Benedict complaining about being called ex-pope."
