Phil Mickelson opens up about his Masters experience

The six time major champion attended a flash interview on Friday at Augusta National. The reporter wanted to know if calling ANGC “almost therapeutic,” was right. Or was it “ just what it does to people when they step inside?” Mickelson replied with better terms to be used and said, “I would use the word more spiritual because, if you love golf, when you come here, it’s more of a spiritual experience, where you feel this appreciation for this great game and the gratitude that you have.”
