The fans were a bit timid in their response, even after he drained a 15-foot birdie putt at the final hole for a 7-under 65. Yet there were definite signs of warming toward the guy who led golf into an ugly civil war.
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Phil Mickelson will never receive the sort of adulation that once shadowed his every step.But give Lefty credit. He sure LIVened things up Sunday afternoon at the Masters.
“Separate. Separate. They are separate issues,” Mickelson insisted. “Golf and the professional golf ecosystem and how that’s been handled throughout my career, two totally separate things.” You just knew that LIV CEO and Commissioner Greg Norman was eager to crow over a Masters victory by one of his guys, something he never managed himself.By the time Koepka finally trudged off the 18th green for the second time, some 11 hours after his day began, Jon Rahm was the guy being sized up for the green jacket. An excruciating stretch of 22 consecutive holes without a birdie was the LIV star’s undoing.
Even when he returned to the course as an LIV player, captaining a team goofily known as the “HyFlyers,” he appeared to have forgotten all the skills that made him one of the game’s greatest players.
