When thinking of some of the best players in the world, Phil Mickelson stands out in a special place among them.

However, the golf legend has been away from the eyes of his fans for quite some time now. But to everyone’s surprise, Lefty was seen sharing some really expert advice for younger golfers in a recent video on Instagram.

Phil Mickelson has some advice for amateur golfers

Mickelson, 52, has made tons of records in his PGA Tour career. The six-time major winner is counted among the most talented players in the golf fraternity. Although the player was heavily scrutinized for his unexpected move to LIV Golf, his fans are still excited to watch him play his best shots.

Despite his longtime absence from social media and media interactions, the golfer recently appeared in a video sharing special tips and tricks for amateur golfers.

According to the golf legend, amateurs need to keep their weight forward while chipping so they can drive the club down. Moreover, a golfer needs to have his “hands ahead of the club” while chipping. While his third tip was probably the most important one, according to him. It was about the player needing to decide if he wanted to go low or high before he chipped the ball. As per Mickelson’s experience, a golfer shouldn’t stand in the middle as that would hinder him from making a low or high vicinity chip.

Where has Mickelson been for so long?

Ever since Mickelson joined LIV Golf, he hasn’t made many appearances in interviews and other media interactions. Not to forget, the golfer has gotten himself and LIV Golf into some serious trouble in the past with his unacceptable statements about the PGA Tour. And to prevent that from happening again, his Saudi League contract required him to avoid interviews and press conferences as long as Greg Norman’s league did not permit him.

But with the Masters Tournament approaching within a few days, it won’t be less than a treat for fans to watch the golfer in action again! However, with a field full of so many talented golfers, do you think Mickelson stands a chance to claim his seventh major victory? Let us know in the comments section!
