Phil Mickelson has been labelled a 'b******* artist' by one of his fellow LIV Golf players, following the six-time major champion's trip to Saudi Arabia after joining the breakaway circuit last year.
Mickelson became the poster boy of LIV Golf after becoming one of the biggest names to make the controversial move from the PGA Tour in 2022. His switch did not come without drama though, after the 52-year-old broke a four-month silence to join the breakaway league.
His silence began after Mickelson had labelled the Saudi Arabian 'scary m************', before seemingly playing down the nation's poor human rights record in order to 'gain leverage on the PGA Tour during an interview with his biographer Alan Shipnuck.
