"Well, a couple of neckless security dudes just physically removed me from Phil Mickelson's press conference, saying they were acting on orders from their boss, whom they refused to name. Never a dull moment up in here," Shipnuck tweeted.
The text from Shipnuck reads: "Are you aware that I just got muscled out of Phil's press conference by a couple of your goons? Luckily for you guys I kept my cool and deescalated the situation. Please call me to discuss."Shipnuck then shared a screenshot showing Norman standing behind him watching on as he's thrown out.In an email to Golf Week about his removal, Shipnuck said he was dumbfounded by the request to leave.
Fresh off his one-under 69 showing at the Centurion Club, Mickelson repeatedly declined to answer any questions about the PGA Tour's decision to ban him, telling reporters he wouldn't answer such questions no matter how many ways they ask. As for his play, Mickelson said he enjoyed his time on the course.
Across the course, the only branding was from LIV Golf and a sparse number of spectators in attendance. There was intrigue from those who did turn up, accompanied by a desire to see so many of the world's leading golfers, although none from the top 10. The field is split into 12 teams with garish logos and brash names, like Dustin Johnson‘s 4 Aces and Graeme McDowell’s Niblicks.
