In one of her tweets in 2021, Spiranac wrote, “Haha I love Phil! I selfishly wanted him to retire so we could see him in the booth because he has the best commentary in the game!” She might be right about Mickelson’s potential for being a golf broadcaster. But it doesn’t seem like Mickelson is anywhere near to retiring from the sport. Instead, he sees a lot more years for himself in the game and is currently a representative of the Saudi-backed league.
