Life partners often get the best out of their other halves in the aptest ways. Similar has been the case with Phil Mickelson. Marrying Amy Mickelson in 1996 (four years after he turned pro), Mickelson steadily climbed the ladder of success. Needless to say, he has also been vocal for a long time in expressing his love for his wife.
The year 2009 might have been a pleasant one for Mickelson on the professional front. However, that clearly wasn’t the case on his personal front. In 2009, the former World No. 2 suffered one of the biggest downfalls in his personal life after his wife was diagnosed with breast cancer.
