Greg Norman, CEO of LIV Golf Invitational Series, is currently making the headlines in the golfing world. The Saudi-backed rival league led by Greg Norman is all set to begin in June 2022. However, there were plenty of obstacles in his way. Things had escalated quickly after Phil Mickelson’s comments about this league and PGA Tour. Recently, Greg Norman, in an interview, presented his views on how Phil’s comments hurt the LIV Golf Invitational Series. “There’s no question it hurt,” said Norman. “It hurt a lot of aspects. It hurt the PGA Tour. And It hurt us. It hurt the game of golf. It hurt Phil. So yeah, across all fronts. It wasn’t just specifically to us. But it definitely created negative momentum against us.” ACCORDING TO GREG NORMAN, WHEN WAS THE LIV GOLF INVITATIONAL SERIES SUPPOSED TO START? Greg Norman made a surprising revelation [https://www.golfmonthly.com/news/phil-mickelson-comments-hurt-us-greg-norman?utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=socialflow&utm_source=twitter.com] that the Saudi-backed LIV Golf Invitational Series was about to begin in February. He also said that they had plenty of golfers in the field, and they were ready to get associated with the league. However, the whole Phil Mickelson saga happened, and everyone got tensed.

This worldwide series will have eight events, with an inaugural event in London a week before the U.S. Open. The first seven events have a $255 million combined purse with a $25 million purse for each event. Additionally, the season-ending event will have a whopping $50 million prize money with a team championship. [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/greg-norman.jpg] Hence, a few golfers, including Phil Mickelson [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/phil-mickelson/], have asked for an exemption from the PGA Tour to compete in the inaugural event. However, the PGA Tour and the DP World Tour have already clarified that golfers competing in the rival league will face a complete ban [https://www.espn.in/golf/story/_/id/33805935/phil-mickelson-registers-pga-championship-us-open-requests-release-liv-golf-invitational-series] from their respective tours. Hence, it will be interesting to see how things unfold as we head toward the first event of the LIV Golf Invitational Series. However, the former Australian golfer Greg Norman is confident about the league’s success. And he believes this will assist in growing the game of golf across the globe.

Phil Mickelson, with his incredible club skills and his long list of achievements, has won over the hearts of many in his 30+ years as a professional golfer. In the era of Tiger Woods, Phil managed to make a name for himself and be known as one of the greatest golfers of all time. This was, of course, no ordinary feat! Although he spent the majority of his career in Woodsâ€™s shadow, Phil came to be known as the 15-time major winnerâ€™s rival and his biggest one! To date, he has continued to stun the golf world with his skill, despite his age, making him one of the players the golf world eagerly looks forward to watching on the course! Let's explore all that the golf legend has accomplished in his career and the path he is now on.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Phil Mickelson's net worth 2024</b></h2>
Since he first picked up a club over five decades ago, Mickelson has certainly come a long way. Not only has he cemented his name in the golf world, but he has also created a massive empire out of his career! with numerous endorsement deals under his belt. The golf pro is currently worth approximately $400 million, a lot of which he owes to his latest partnership with LIV Golf.

In the summer of 2022, Lefty was one of the many PGA Tour stars who jumped ship and headed over to the Saudi-backed league. His stature and hold over the golf world earned him a whopping <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/golf-news-despite-signing-a-massive-200m-liv-golf-contract-phil-mickelson-billionaire-dreams-wont-be-fulfilled-anytime-soon-heres-why/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$200 million contract from the new league</a> where the golf pro now competes. With this switch in leagues, Phil also saw one of the biggest controversies of his lifetime! He faced backlash from fans, the public, and especially the PGA Tour, which banned him and the other stars who left from all Tour events indefinitely.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Phil Mickelson's early life</h2>
Born in 1970, the golf pro was named Philip Alfred Mickelson. In the golf world, of course, he is better known as Lefty! He first began playing the sport when he was just a toddler, at 18 months old, by mirroring his fatherâ€™s swing. This led to him playing like a left-handed player despite being right-handed naturally, earning him his nickname as he got older.

[caption id="attachment_1080915" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-1080915 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2022-06-10T161235Z_280170181_UP1EI6A190XDO_RTRMADP_3_GOLF-LIV.jpg" alt="Phil Mickelson at LIV Golf event in London" width="1920" height="1201" /> Golf â€“ The inaugural LIV Golf Invitational â€“ Centurion Club, Hemel Hempstead, St Albans, Britain â€“ June 10, 2022 Team Hy Flyerâ€™s Phil Mickelson of the U.S. during the second round REUTERS/Paul Childs[/caption]

The young Lefty began establishing his name in the world of golf during his days as an amateur golfer. Mickelson went on to win several tournaments, including the National Junior Player of the Year award, for three consecutive years, from 1986 to 1988. Mickelson also bagged a complete scholarship at Arizona State University (ASU) via his tremendous overall performance on the golf course. Phil went on to become the fourth amateur to win a PGA Tour title when he won the Northern Telecom Open in 1991
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Phil Mickelsonâ€™s 2024 sources of income</strong></h2>
The $400 million man has undoubtedly seen massive earnings throughout his career. While his LIV contract is probably his biggest payday ever, itâ€™s not his only one. In his 30+ years of playing on the PGA Tour, including his major championship winnings, he has earned $96,572,310.

In 2023, the golf pro made $2,855,250 after playing in 14 events. His total career earnings over the years are currently upward of a billion dollars, thanks to all these earnings! As of 2023, Mickelson was ranked the 7th highest-earning athlete in the year, but besides the course, Lefty makes a lot of money off it too.

<a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/golf-news-liv-golf-phil-mickelson-severes-ties-with-callaway-partnership-after-twenty-long-years-second-legendary-exit-following-tiger-woods/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In 2024, Mickelson parted ways with Callaway and ended a 20-year partnership.</a> The <em>Lefty</em> has multiple endorsement deals, through which he earns millions every year. Some of these companies include Coffee of Wellness, Amgen, Intrepid Financial Partners, Titleist, and Grayhawk. Moreover, he even owns a golf club, the Phil Mickelson Golf Club, which is flourishing.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Phil Mickelson's family and personal life</strong></h2>
Off the course, Mickelson has a different persona altogether. Heâ€™s a family man! His Twitter bio too shows that he prioritizes his family before all else, as it states, â€œ<em>Husband.</em>Â <em>Lefty. LIV. Golfer.â€</em>Â Itâ€™s safe to say that his wife, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/golf-news-who-is-phil-mickelsons-wife-all-you-need-to-know-about-the-power-couples-twenty-six-years-old-marriage-amy-mickelson/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Amy Mickelson</a>, will always be the golferâ€™s first choice. Phil and Amy met back in 1992 while both were studying at Arizona State University. She was a cheerleader for the NBAâ€™s Phoenix Suns cheerleading squad.

It wasnâ€™t long before they got together, and four years later, on November 16, 1996, the couple tied the knot. Nearly 3 years after their wedding, the Mickelsons increased their family numbers. Amy gave birth to their first daughter, Amanda Brynn Mickelson, in June 1999. Just two years later, the couple had another daughter, Sophia Isabel Mickelson, who was born in October 2001. But their family got even bigger in the years that followed! And in March 2003, their third child and only son, Evan Samuel Mickelson, was born.

The Mickelson family always came first. He even skipped out on possible career-changing golf events, prioritizing his wife and children. Heâ€™ll undoubtedly credit his parents, Philip and Mary Mickelson, for this beautiful upbringing. Lefty also has two siblings: Tim, his brother, who now serves as his caddy and is on the course with him for almost every event, and a sister, Tina.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Phil Mickelson's records</strong></h2>
It would be an understatement to say that Mickelson had a great golf career. It was enormous! Throughout his 30+ years of professional golf, the pro has amassed 57 professional wins. The majority of these came on the PGA Tour, where he spent 30 years playing. He won 45 events on the Tour, of which six were <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/pga-tour-golf-news-how-old-was-phil-mickelson-when-he-won-his-first-major-championship/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">major championships; his first came in 2004</a>, and his last to date, 17 years after that, came in 2021.

[caption id="attachment_1080910" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-1080910 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2022-06-09T183727Z_232606975_UP1EI691FQD5M_RTRMADP_3_GOLF-LIV.jpg" alt="Phil Mickelson" width="1920" height="1380" /> Golf â€“ The inaugural LIV Golf Invitational â€“ Centurion Club, Hemel Hempstead, St Albans, Britain â€“ June 9, 2022 Team Hy Flyers Phil Mickelson of the U.S. during the first round Action Images via Reuters/Paul Childs[/caption]

He has won the prestigious Masters Tournament three times, and just this year he tied for second, narrowly missing his fourth victory at Augusta. He has also won the PGA Championship twice and the Open Championship once in his career. Currently, he needs just a US Open win to complete his much-anticipated career grand slam. But only time will tell if thatâ€™s something thatâ€™s possible for the golf legend.

Besides the majors and on the PGA Tour, heâ€™s also won five times on the European Tour, once on the Challenge Tour, four times on the PGA Tour Champions (senior circuit), and four other events during his professional career.

Thanks to his skill, Mickelson, of course, holds several records, but his biggest is one that he achieved in<a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/golf-news-how-many-major-championships-has-phil-mickelson-won/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> 2021 with his sixthÂ major win</a>. At 50 years, 11 months, and 7 days, he became the oldest player to ever win a major that year. A record that may just stand the test of time!
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Phil Mickelson controversy</strong></h2>
Unlike many other golfers, Mickelson didnâ€™t see a great number of controversies during his career. But his biggest came last year when he jumped ship and joined the new Saudi-backed league. Considering his huge reputation and the name that he had made for himself on the PGA Tour, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/golf-news-phil-mickelson-opens-up-on-recent-struggles-after-joining-liv-golf-harder-than-i-thought/?utm_source=website%2F&amp;utm_medium=dive_deeper&amp;utm_campaign=internal_links" target="_blank" rel="noopener">many saw this as a betrayal</a> and as him turning his back on the Tour. Furthermore, for his choice, he also suffered the grave consequences of the indefinite PGA Tour ban and also lost many sponsors in the process.

Another big controversy that Mickelson has dealt with in his career is his gambling. The pro suffered from a grave addiction to gambling and was also infamously known for placing large bets with his fellow golfers during practice rounds on the course. Between 2010 and 2014 alone, he incurred nearly a <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/golf-news-phil-mickelson-who-has-a-300m-net-worth-once-lost-half-his-pga-tour-earnings-due-to-a-severe-gambling-problem/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$40 million debt thanks to his gambling problem</a>. In 2021, he revealed that he was aware that it had become a problem that was affecting him and his family and that he had taken steps in the right direction.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Phil Mickelson's foundation and charity</strong></h2>
With the amount of money heâ€™s made in his lifetime, Mickelson also knows the importance of giving back to the community. Hence, in 2004, he and his wife, Amy, since family is their priority, set up the Phil and Amy Mickelson Foundation, which focuses on <em>â€œsupporting a variety of youth and family initiatives,â€Â </em>as per its website.

That same year, he partnered up with the PGA Tour to create a national military outreach platform, Birdies for the Brave,â€™ which still exists to date. The program has raised both awareness and funds for military members, veterans, and their families, helping them with rehabilitation housing, counseling, and even education and career development. Furthermore, in 2021, the Mickelson Foundation will have donated $1 million across 14 charities in the Coachella Valley.

Through his golf, too, Mickelson has been doing his bit for the community. He has participated in many exhibition events for charity to create awareness and raise funds for various purposes.

‘Created Negative Momentum’: Greg Norman Reveals the Consequences of Recent Phil Mickelson Saga

According to Greg Norman, when was the LIV Golf Invitational Series supposed to start?
