Age is just a number. As cliche as it sounds, Phil Mickelson is living proof of the age-old saying. At the age of 52, Mickelson is still at the top of his game. His success is just an ode to his approach to life. As a matter of fact, his parents, Phil Mickelson Sr. and Mary Mickelson are aware of his A-game. They once talked about how he is still young at heart. At the end of the day, that is what matters, right?
Phil Mickelson is arguably one of the best left-handed players in the world of golf. His impeccable skill is not the only reason fans love him, it is also his attitude toward life that gets him all the admiration.

Phil Mickelson’s father thinks he is young at heart
The golf world legend’s father, Phil Sr., once talked about how he felt when his dear son turned 50. For a parent, their child always remains young, and the same holds true of Phil Sr.
He talked about the way he perceives his son, Phil Mickelson at 50. He also described how fun it is to be around Phil and especially play some games with him.
His exact words were, “He doesn’t seem 50 to us, for sure. But he’s a young guy at heart. He’s always a lot of fun to be around and do things with. And if you are playing some sort of game with him, you don’t want to lose because you’ll hear about it.”
In retrospect, Mickelson’s chirpy and lively attitude toward life makes it impossible for one to believe that he is old, after all. He stands strong at the age of 52 and seems to get better each day.
