Although Phil Mickelson is a member of the Hall of Fame and one of the top players in the sport, it is unclear how his association with LIV Golf would affect his legacy. However, his legacy has been hindered by his new look on the golf course, and fans are going crazy. Despite the scrutiny, the pro golfer joined the Saudi-backed circuit last year. And now, the second season of the rebranded LIV Golf begins in February. Fans are excited to see their favorite LIV defector play golf.

This season, Mickelson’s beard will not accompany him. A new video of the major championship winner is going viral on the internet. He returned to the golf course for practice sessions, but his beard did not. He was seen clean-shaven, swinging at the golf ball in baggy shorts. His new style is taking over the internet users. What do fans think about his new look?

Now I probably wanted to start in Mexico.” Down the line somewhere, he lost track of his health, due to which Tiger Woods once had a sense of disdain for him, revealed in 2021.
