Both were arse's before LIV.


I can count on about 2 fingers the number of articles written, or commentary given, about Phil Mickelson before Jan 2022 that were negative in nature. But when he started pushing LIV, it became cool to say Phil is not liked by other players and he gambles too much. That’s a perfect example of today’s media that just follow an approved narrative. If Phil was always that way, why did no one in the media speak up before?

I'm gonna have to disagree with this. He's a popular player and a brand in his own right, but they didn't call him FIGJAM for no reason.

There were rumors about he and his wife being swingers and Michael Jordon.

So he's had his detractors over the years.

That said, the onslaught towards any and everything LIV had been ridiculous.

And don't look now, but the leaderboard at this week's LIV looks a lot more interesting than Colonial.

That’s just not true unfortunately.

The nickname FIGJAM is real

That’s not necessarily a point for Phil as much as it’s an indictment of the image the tour will do anything to uphold.

Is it transparent and great for folks trying to get a glimpse into the ongoing on tour? No. But if you’re a part of the tour I’m sure it’s a great thing.

Also, I’m 100% sure there have been more than 2 negative articles written about Phil since he joined the tour. C’mon, man. You know that’s a weak take.
