Mickelson is currently ranked 32nd in the Official World Golf Rankings and he is a former world number two.
 
The man nicknamed Phil The Thrill has enjoyed some success on the Charles Schwab Challenge having won two titles over the years.
 
Phil The Thrill won the tournament in 2000 and 2008 and the competition was known as the Mastercard Colonial and Crowne Plaza International At Colonial respectively.
 
Mickelson has won 45 events on the PGA Tour, including six major championships: three Masters titles (2004, 2006, 2010), two PGA Championships (2005, 2021), and one Open Championship (2013).

The San Diego-born legend is now the only player to have claimed PGA Tour victories 30 years apart and he is ecstatic after winning the PGA Tournament. 
 
"This is just an incredible feeling because I just believed that it was possible but yet everything was saying it wasn't," said Mickelson.
 
"And I hope that others find that inspiration. It might take a little extra work, a little bit harder effort to maintain physically or maintain the skills but, gosh, is it worth it.
 
"It's been an incredible day, and I've not let myself kind of think about the results until now, now that it's over."
