Phil Mickelson turned into a counsellor in lucrative beer deal before LIV defection

LIV Golf star Phil Mickelson is now earning millions in the Saudi breakaway league.

Phil Mickelson might not be at his golfing best anymore, but the LIV golfer has always been a man about town after featuring as a counsellor in an entertaining advert.

The 54-year-old has been quite aggressive during the games and is quite powerful in his drive also gave a befitting illustration of how capable of making some dangerous shots.

Away from the fairways and greens, however, Mickelson is a much more social presence in and around the world of golf, making him one of the most popular figures with fans.

Nowadays, the American golfer is rolling in the money after escaping to the breakaway LIV Golf league to earn millions from the Saudi-backed league.

He banked a whopping signing on fee worth £154million $200million, according to Forbes. But once upon a time, he was a hot commodity in terms of being a marketable figure in the USA.

Featuring in the ‘In the Rough’ advert in 2020, the five-time Major winner took on the role of a counsellor – albeit while sat in a chair on the rough part of the golf course with a six-pack of beer.

Mickelson then offered his advice to a man struggling with his golf game and advised him to make friends in his social life, suggesting they should meet for a beer.

Just ask this Mike for his number and see if he wants to grab an Amstel Light sometime,” Mickelson says to the man. “That’s always a good place to start.”

Mickelson then attempts to make the man eating less awkward by domesticating the situation telling the man that many men don’t know how to make friends – before notably excluding himself owing to his celebrity status.

“I mean, not me. I used to be Phil Mickelson,” he said “But those who aren’t me.”

That would come out of be one of the final large dollar advertisements Mickelson did prior to his move to LIV. And some might argue that while people like Mickelson, he is not exactly friendly to everybody, particularly his fellow golfer Woods.

Both Woods and Mickelson have confronted each other severally during their playing careers although there is nocrcord of animosity between the two players at any point. The pair at least said hello when they were seen getting into a golf buggy and following each other during a practice round at Royal Troon prior to the Open Championship in July.

Mickelson corroborated Woods’ disclosure that the two had shaken their hand and spoken a brief ‘hello’ when they both warmed up on the practice tee. But it appears the two partners did not want to spend a lot of time chatting with each other.

It may be all said and done after Mickelson changed teams and joined the LIV, but if the duo could just get themselves stranded in the middle of a fairway with a few beers they might just have their debate restarted.
