This weekend, Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson, among other golfers, will be swinging it out at New Jersey's Liberty National, the former toxic waste dumping ground turned fairway and greens with a view of the Manhattan skyline and Lady Liberty, at a tournament called The Barclays (sponsored, of course, by Barclays plc). In the below video, CNBC speaks to Mickelson and Barclays chief Bob Diamond (both members of Liberty National) about the course, Lehman Brothers, Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke, the economy, Barclays and even Bob's skills off the tee (according to Phil, Bob's got game).
