“I don’t condone human rights violations at all,” Mickelson said. “I’m certainly aware of what has happened with Jamal Khashoggi and I think it’s terrible. I’ve also seen the good the game of golf has done throughout history and I believe that LIVis going to do a lot of good for the game as well. I’m excited about this opportunity. That’s why I’m here.”
Phil Mickelson shanks his second shot on the first hole while playing right-handed, during the pro-am at the Centurion Club on Wednesday.“It’s given me time to continue some of the work and therapy I’ve been working on in some areas that I’ve been deficient in my life. It’s given me time to reflect on what I want to do going forward or what’s best for me, what’s best for the people I care about.but not wanting to be there. I had not played. I had not touched a club.
