‘Who F**king Cares’: Golf World Reacts to Phil Mickelson’s Insane Golf Shot at Second LIV Golf Event

Phil Mickelson is currently one of the most controversial players in the golf community. The six-time major winner has tons of records under his name. Mickelson is a former PGA Tour player who recently started playing in the LIV Golf Invitational Series.

Like Phil Mickelson, many other players also joined the Saudi-backed league, leaving their PGA careers behind. Some players called it a business decision, while others said they wanted to play less golf. However, “Lefty” was one of the initial players to join the LIV Tour. The golfer’s shots have been getting fan reactions all over the internet.

Mickelson’s game in round two of the LIV Series is currently buzzing on Twitter. But is it his game that the fans want to talk about or is it something else?

A short clip of Mickelson hitting a shot at Portland in the second round of the LIV Tour is going viral on Twitter. Fans from around the world are giving all kinds of reactions to the video. But most of them aren’t supportive or positive:

Mickelson’s trick shot got the ball very close to the hole. But all that the fans had to say were taunts and statements about the player’s decision of betraying the PGA Tour and playing in this “exhibition of golf”. Although a couple of fans also appreciated the shot, but they were eventually bombarded by a barrage of questions by other viewers in the comments section.

While Mickelson was approaching the tee box on Thursday for his first shot, a person outside the rope asked him: “How you doing, Phil?”. “Awesome” Lefty replied. Mickelson kept smiling throughout his round and accompanied that smile with his trademark thumbs-up sign. He remained the same on Friday even after a 75 for the second time consecutively, tied for 36th.
