Mickelson Gets in Practice in Atlanta
'Lefty' will be among those competing in the upcoming PGA Championship at Johns Creek.
Four-time major champion Phil Mickelson and his famous left-handed swing could be seen Tuesday getting in some practice at the Atlanta Athletic Club in advance of next week's PGA Championship.
The top 100 of the 102 best golfers in the field (as ranked by the Official World Golf Ranking – OWGR) are scheduled to compete in Johns Creek on Aug. 11-14. This will be the second-best field in all of golf, only beaten by the 2002 PGA Championship.
Mickelson is the PGA Tour's third all-time money winning leader with $62.8 million in career earnings. He is No. 5 in 2011 winnings with $3.18 million.
