‘Can We Have a Glass of Lemonade’: $300 Million Worth Phil Mickelson Once Gave a ‘Good’ Tip to Two Kids Near a PGA Memorial Tournament

Phil Mickelson is the ‘ultimate prankster’ in the golf world. Fans are well aware of his witty sense of humor. However, his kind gestures are also a big giveaway to his personality. The golfer keeps giving away money to the needy. And there was an adorable moment where he tipped two little kids who were selling lemonade on their stand!

Phil Mickelson tipped two kids selling lemonade

Lefty is highly known for his kind-hearted gestures and charities. And although it wasn’t a very big amount, Mickelson once gave a tip to two kids selling lemonade near the PGA’s Memorial Tournament. The kids, Elise and Roland Van Karsen, knew exactly where to set up their little shop. And as they thought, Mickelson pulled over next to their stand and asked them for a glass of lemonade.

The little siblings expressed their happiness after being tipped by one of the greatest golfers. “All we were doing was sitting here, and then all we saw was this white car drive up,” the boy said. “He just opened the door and said can we have a glass of lemonade”. The boy tried to explain how Mickelson gave them “a big tip”.

When asked how much the kids got as a tip from Mickelson, they said, “a 100 dollars”. It was indeed the biggest tip for the little kids trying to sell lemonade on the street outside a tournament venue. However, both of them had different plans for using the money. Both the kids wanted to save it, but for different things. The girl said she wanted to save the 100 dollars for a kindle. While the boy wanted to save the money for a “nerf gun”!

Giving big tips is nothing new for Mickelson

Phil Mickelson has had a reputation for over-tipping. His fellow golfers believe that he gives pretty big tips on and off the field. But why does Mickelson do that? For the same reason, anybody would over-tip. He once said, “What’s a few hundred dollars to me, when I know it’s going to make the other person’s day?” For the highest-paid golfer in the world, giving away a few hundred dollars as tip isn’t gonna make a difference to his bank balance. A little humility, though, goes a long way. And Mickelson, definitely makes it a point to give, whenever presented with a chance.
