As they discussed the LIV Golf Series withe each other, “He literally took that don’t blink thing to heart,” the golf analyst Amanda Rose said. “He also showed up looking like a guy that just got divorced. Your (Mickelson’s) hair and your beard don’t match,” Rose further added. “Like shave it or dye the beard. You got to do one or the other.”

Phil was also seen wearing the Augusta National pullover at the event. However, it had been blacked out for the event. “The first day, Paige, I don’t know if you saw this, but he had on an Augusta pullover. Like a vest with a logo… with the Augusta logo on it.”  Between the Augusta wear and the old man look, Mickelson surely had a lot going on in June.
