KIAWAH ISLAND, SC – Clobbering Father Time, Big Bad Bully Brooks Koepka and overcoming Pete Dye’s bruise hard at sea, Phil Mickelson etched his name into the golf history with a stunning victory Sunday at PGA 103. For Mickelson to falter, given that he hasn’t won since 2019 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, hadn’t finished the top ten in a major since 2016 and had recently sought meditation to deal with focus issues, not lost focus and unbalanced during a rollercoaster ride on the rough, windy ocean track on Kiawah Island to become the oldest championship winner. Greatest ever, 50 years old. After falling asleep on a single bullet, Mickelson, a 200-1 shot to win on Thursday and a few weeks after reaching the age of 51, he survived his first 10 holes in the first 10 holes as he and his playmate Koepka exchanged body strokes with four swings from one shot and swing by three shots then He did not swing a little more excitement though and the People’s Champion won his sixth major tournament – and the first since the 2013 British Open – and replaced Julius Burrus, inspired by Phil’s tumultuous art exhibitions. Who won the PGA 1968 championship at 48 years 4 months 18 days old as the oldest major championship winning at 50 years 11 months and 7 days old.
