What You Didn’t Know About Pro Golfer Phil Mickelson

Even if you don’t regularly follow the PGA Tour (that’s the Professional Golf Association), you might have heard of another professional golfer besides Tiger Woods and that’s Phil Mickelson.

Phil has won 3 Majors and close to 40 events on the PGA Tour. Further, he has ranked 2nd in the world for multiple years.

You might know some of this, but I guess you didn’t know that Phil Mickelson is also a martial artist who studies self-defense through karate and kung fu. According to Phil himself, this has helped his game enormously.

But what I also really appreciate about Phil Mickelson (and his wife, Amy) is his support of the Special Operations Warrior Foundation and their programs to provide college educations to the surviving children of fallen special operations personnel as well as financial support to the families of wounded special operations personnel.

So far the Mickelsons have personally and through their foundation and his fans donated more than US$ 750,000 to the SOWF!

An eagle and two thumbs up for Phil Mickelson!
