PGA Tour: DORAL, Florida – This year, Phil Mickelson has done his fair share of introspection.
The PGA Tour and LIV Golf, which Mickelson eventually joined, were both criticised in an article published in February on the Fire Pit Collective website. Mickelson was cited in the article. Afterwards, Lefty admitted, “I have made mistakes throughout my career in some of the things I have said and done.
Following statements earlier this month that he was delighted to have chosen the “winning side” in the conflict between LIV and the PGA Tour and that the Tour is “going lower,” Mickelson provided another remorseful answer on Wednesday at the LIV Golf team finals at Doral.
Phil Mickelson remarked, “Maybe I shouldn’t have said anything like that, I don’t know.” “But if I’m just looking at LIV Golf and where we are today compared to where we were six or seven months ago, when people were saying that the game was dead in the water, we’re past that, and here we are today, a force in the game that’s not going away, that has players of this calibre who are moving professional golf throughout the world and the excitement level in countries around the world when some of the best players in the world come to their country and compete.
At this week’s CJ Cup, PGA Tour veterans Rory McIlroy and Jon Rahm reacted angrily to Mickelson’s remarks about his “going south.”
I adore Phil, but I have no idea what he is talking about. Rahm responded, “I truly don’t understand why he said that. There have been some changes, but that doesn’t necessarily mean things are becoming worse, right? I genuinely have no idea why he said it.
The PGA Tour had also punished 11 players, including Mickelson, for their participation in LIV Golf’s August antitrust complaint against the Tour. He withdrew from the lawsuit in late September.
