The level of disrespect shown to Phil Mickelson on this brutal lipout is disgusting

Alex MyersJanuary 22, 2021

It’s been an eventful week for Phil Mickelson at the American Express event before he even hit his first official shot. First, Phil flexed at his pre-tournament press conference by wearing a Masters mask, and then he put on a show as only he can in a nine-hole charity match. But he wasn’t smiling after what happened to him on his sixth hole of the first round.

After a great bunker shot on the par-5 15th at PGA West’s Nicklaus course set up a three-footer for birdie, Mickelson suffered one of the most brutal lipouts you’ll ever see. Not a 180, not a 360, but a 540-degree slap in the face. Check it out, unless you’re scared it will give you nightmares:

This will sting for a bit.

Ouch. Seriously, does that cup know who he is?! It’s Phil Mickelson! A 44-time PGA Tour winner, five-time Major champion, and not to mention this week’s host. Show some freaking respect.

Anyway, the lipout surely stung Mickelson for a bit, but so did the back-to-back bogeys he made on the next two holes. On the bright side, if he misses the cut, it could be a chance to hear more of him in the commentary booth during the weekend.
