Phil Mickelson is presently playing in London at the inaugural event of the LIV Golf Invitational Series. Since the league wouldn’t reveal the field list of the upcoming events until a week before it, the fans are unaware of how long the golfer will play at the event.

“I’ll be playing all the LIV events,” Mickelson answered. The golfer revealed his plans with LIV Golf in the press meet after day 1 in London. “I’ll be participating in all the LIV events,” the golfer assured the golf world.

According to Mickelson, he will play all the eight events in the league up until October 30 at Miami. However, there is no certainty whether he will play in any other events from the LIV Golf this season. “I’m going to play the ten next year,” the 2021 PGA Championship winner stated. “I can tell you that.”

Notably, the golfer only answered questions about LIV Golf in the press meet. He avoided answering any questions from the reporters about the PGA Tour and his suspension.
