The relationship of the PLAYERS Championship with Phil Mickelson

Mickelson had been nothing but incredible as a golfer throughout his career. He has won more than 45 PGA Tour events, including 6 major championships. However, his relationship with the PLAYERS has not been really well; He has only won the tournament once in his career. 

According to Mickelson, the Masters is much easier than that of the PLAYERS. “When you go to Augusta, I feel like I don’t have to be perfect, and so I end up making better swings,” Lefty said in an interview.

 “And then you get out here (PLAYERS), and the fairways are tight, the rough is thicker, and then I start to steer it, and I start to make some horrific swings.”
