Phil Mickelson Professional Career:

Mickelson has enjoyed a lot of success on and off the golf course. He won his first PGA tour event, the Northern Telecom Open, in 1991, while he was still an amateur. Mickelson was able to bypass the PGA tour’s qualifying process thanks to his 1991 Tucson win, and quickly turned pro after his college graduation.

From 1999 to 2003, Mickelson clocked 17 top-ten finishes, and six second- or third- place finishes, although he did not actually win any of the majors.

His first major championship win came in 2004, during his thirteenth year on the PGA tour. In 2016, Mickelson underwent two sports hernia surgeries, but made an unexpectedly quick recovery and returned triumphantly with a T-21 finish at the CareerBuilder Challenge. In 2019, he won the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, which was his 44th career title on the PGA Tour.

It also made him the oldest winner (48 years old) of the event. In December 2019, Mickelson announced that he would miss the Waste Management Phoenix Open for the first time since 1989, in favor of playing in the Saudi International golf tournament. At the Saudi Arabian event, held in February 2020, he tied for third.

Phil Mickelson has won many PGA events during his career, over 40, including four Major Championships – the 2004 Masters, the 2005 PGA Championship, 2006 Masters and the 2010 Masters. Today Phil Mickelson is one of the best and most popular professional golfers in the world.

Phil Mickelson Saudi League Controversy and Payday

Due to this interview, Phil lost his longest and most valuable sponsor, KPMG.

The remarks apparently were not enough to deter the organizers of LIV, however. In June 2022 it was reported that Phil had signed a $200 million contract to join the LIV league.
