Phil Mickelson Was the Real Winner of THE MATCH – Here’s Why

After months of back and forth, Brooks Koepka and Bryson DeChambeau finally settled their beef on the golf course. To be honest, ‘The Match’ wasn’t as entertaining as people expected it to be, considering all the hype that was thrown around. With that being said, Phil Mickelson also made his commentary debut by picking up the mic for Brooks vs Bryson and did a decent job out of it. 

Phil Mickelson is a genius when it comes to golf and he’s often proved it on the course. However, fans saw a different version of him at the Wynn Golf Club as Phil wasn’t holding a club in his hand, but a mic. 

Phil Mickelson destroyed Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka with a single sentence 

Prior to the showdown, Bleacher Report had organized a hot-seat type program involving Brooks Koepka, Bryson DeChambeau, and Phil Mickelson. All sorts of questions were thrown, and at one point, DeChambeau was trying to explain just how hard it is to get into Phil’s mind and mess with him. 

The conversation was light – everyone knows Phil has the ability to shut down any outside noise. Suddenly the topic shifted toward Mickelson’s coffee and everyone claimed that the chemicals along with the caffeine are helping Phil stay like a rock at all times. 

Of course, it was a witty take by the panel, but Phil Mickelson fired back in prime fashion. With DeChambeau and Koepka seated to his left, he said, “I’m the only one here that has won a major this year.” 

It was a mic drop moment for Phil who then took a sip of his coffee with a cheeky grin. Well, Phil was just spitting facts and you just got to agree with the man!
