    Mickelson In the Drivers Seat at the 18th at the British Open!!

    He's on the 18th and a very "un-Phil" clutch shot to the hole. Has a chance at -3. Tiger would need a miracle. Phil is totally in control. Awesome!! Good guy with all of the cancer-related bs that's he's had to go through. If Phil wins the British Open, it moves him a step closer to Tiger and at 43 years old is just as good, if not better, than Woods.

    It's more than golf; its cancer. Phil Mickelson is the guy that always comes so close, but to make a mistake. This time he nailed it and at 43!. His wife and mother had breast cancer at the same time. How can you not like this guy?

    You might be correct about other golfers disliking him. But I do not think he is phony.

    youre talking about a sport where they dont even publicize when or why guyes are suspended by the tour

    its not like these gueys are gonna spout it all in the media...especially when he's the second best active golfer it would just look like sour grapes

    But Drink "knows" that players hate him. Guess he talks with PGA golfers regularly.

    Or just posts articles from 9 years ago and claims he is right.

    I think the knock on Phil with his fellow peers is he is in love with himslef and thinks he knows everything about every topic in the world, he is a typical rich boy at birth and of course an elitist. I guess he can be, he is one of richest athletes of all times.

    Ummmm, no JJ.

    Mickelson's dad was in the navy, and became a commercial pilot, I think for Delta. Not exactly "rich boy at birth".

    and what have you provided here?

    i happen to know for a fact that phil paid income taxes for a certain player a few years back when the gueys now ex-wife was taking him to the cleaners so i know there are gueys who are very close to him but the bottom line is that most arent

    i guess you think jjer and i are both making it up?

    Here's the thing Drink. I think you can take anyone--- and ask 20 people who they work with, and you will find 5 that hate that person.

    And that is in every walk of life. When you consider how competitive professional golfers are, I would guess that number may be even higher.

    It does not change the fact that when Mickelson won yesterday, 2 guys took the time to actually pop into his interview and offer congrats to him. And, no less than 5 walked up to him and either shook his hand or hugged him.

    His fellow golfers like him. Do some hate him? Of course. It's the nature of their business. But you can't make a blanket statement that everyone hates him either because, there were a lot of guys yesterday genuinely happy for Phil.

    it's a commonly held opinion on tour and it's been openly talked about in the past....maybe it's toned down now that he's an older guey on the tour and the younger players take to him differently and/or maybe he's toned down his act some....but this isn't new knowledge I'm passing along

    and i never said everyone hates him...in fact i even said he has some good friends on tour

    "commonly held opinion on tour"-- by whom?

    Can you name some players who hold this opinion you are talking about?

    I am genuinely curious, not trying to be a wiseass here. I would like to know some of the guys who don't like him.

    I just don't buy him being hated.

    It is tough to hate him when you learn of some of the things Mickelson has done WITHOUT a camera on him.

    Remember the football player, Conrad Dobler? His wife was paralyzed, guy was on hard times. Mickelson heard about him, then paid for Dobler's daughter's college tuition. And didn't tell a single soul, it was Dobler's daughter who told the media.
