Chip Brewer said “still on pause with Phil Mickelson from a sponsorship perspective”, while speaking about the biggest golf name endorsed by the company. He further added, “We will continue to evaluate that going forward”.

Back in 2017, Mickelson signed a lifetime endorsement deal with Callaway sports. However, following his comments on Saudi Arabia, the deal was paused. Nonetheless, the 52-year-old released a statement to acknowledge his mistake and apologize for his comments.

Despite losing most of his sponsorship deals, Mickelson remained positive and joined hands with LIV Golf. Lefty signed a contract worth $200 million with the lucrative Tour and climbed up the ranks to be the highest-paid golfer of 2022. Imagine the amount Phil would have earned if he didn’t lose the endorsement deals and yet played for LIV Golf. Now that’s some absurd money!
