Phil is like a lovable mad scientist. He's gonna try some shit, and sometimes it'll work, and sometimes it won't, but either way you can't help but root for him.
He does go for shots no pro would, agreed. But he definitely is inconsistent. If he was more consistent he would definitely be one of the BEST golfers in history
Truth I am talking about goat status not best golfers. There is a difference. Like Lebron James is the goat but steph curry is one of the best players, you get it?
He seems like the valentino rossi of golf to me, you know he's got it in him to win it but it doesnt matter where he comes, its the watching him play thats fun.
The last clip is my favorite because it was so ridiculous. You know the announcer was instructed to name the events the people have won when they're on the tee, which sounds like a nice idea for 90% of golfers, except when it's Tiger who comes up there you'll be standing there for 15 minutes to get through the whole list lol.
Unfortunately, there's no video of my favorite... it was identical to the one they showed here where Phil hits it backwards. In this video, which I'm pretty sure was the tournament in Colorado that used the Modified Stableford Scoring, Phil didn't get back on the green. But there was a shot, in a real event where Phil nearly holed the same shot, going backwards on a off-canter lie. I've seen film of it but not in the past 20 years so I don't think the Tour or Networks have it.
That's what I admire most about him, and what a non golfer would have no clue about....the ability to keep that smile on his face and that happy demeanor through a round, win or lose, in a game that will frustrate the living sh8t out of even the best, even on a good day. You can't fake that. No amount of prize or endorsement money will buy that for you. It's character and it's class. Not to mention the way he interacts with galleries during and after a round or if you meet him off the course.
Ever get the feeling he is secretly happy when his ball ends up in a seemingly impossible lie? I really think he looks forward to the challenges of these types of shots.
Don't give a s**t what other people think. Phil is the man. He makes watching golf so much fun and he is a great person. Go Phil. Phil has some kind of alien gene.
Growing up around my dad falling asleep on the couch with PGA on the TV on Sundays, Phil is what inspired me to have fun with golf. Love Phil, love the creativity, love short game.
The funny thing is that he just started training his body for the first time. Imagine if he did it when he were young age bro he would have had more wins than tiger
The back-to-back hospitality deck shots is peak Phil Mickelson. The fact he was able to put BACKSPIN off the carpet is crazy. (Two other crazy moments not in this: In the 2003 Masters he took an unplayable on #2, used driver from way off the fairway, somehow hit the green and made a birdie putt across the entire green. And I don't remember which game it was, but he chipped in during a hailstorm, when everyone else was running for cover.)
the uploader did a great job of showing some huge successes and some huge failures because that's an accurate portrayal of his success rate with crazy shots, imo
@@Penguin_of_Death Thank God you corrected me. Should have used than but it's an easy mistake to make. I give you too cookies. Oops.. I mean two cookies. 🙂
@@overnightdelivery as a non native speaker I genuinely do not understand how people make that mistake. Then and than do not sound the same. Weird i guess
Ha, he's either a genius or an idiot. Or, more accurately, he's an undeniable genius who occasionally does idiotic things. Either way he's my favourite golfer, and I still hold out hope he'll win the US Open this year. That'd be a story to rival Tiger's, for sure.
As much as I love Phil, Tiger was having a hard time even walking and performing daily activities without experiencing pain. Combined with a back fusion and having to rebuild his game. I’m sorry, but I’m not sure there is going to be any story in sports that is capable of matching what Tiger did at the Masters.
@@HypeWrecks Honestly, I agree. Objectively speaking, it's tough to imagine what could match Tiger's achievement. But to a long time fan of Phil like me, if he could get the career grand slam I'd consider that worthy of mentioning in the same sentence, at least.
@@HypeWrecks While I agree, Phil's had SIX runner-up finishes in the US Open. SIX. It's the one tournament that's eluded him and he himself has stated winning the US Open would make his career feel complete.
DodderingOldMan Phil doesn’t get enough respect as EASILY a top 5 player of all time. If he played in any other generation of golf, he would have won double the tournaments. Instead, he played behind the most dominant golfer, and possibly sportsman of all time. Edit: Maybe top 5 is a little hyperbolic, he’s top 10 for sure, though.
@0Leadmeister0Listen, Phil called his shot and the reporter did him dirty. If he shatters his legacy to make the PGA better, so be it. I think at the end of the day what Phil will do for his fellow players will impact the players and the game positively because it needed to change.
Phil is phucking awesome, thank you Lefty for providing us years of enjoyment - we love watching you and you were a big reason for me playing golf - I loved watching you and Tiger back in the hay days. I was always proud to be a lefty when it was rare, my response was “Phil does it and well”… Amazing how a righty played lefty - a true gambler
I had the honor of meeting Phil Mickelson in 2004 at the Ryder Cup in Bloomfield, MI. He's a true gentleman and gracious to his fans. He's an all-around, good natured guy. He's everything you'd hope he to be. He's the real deal. I just wish that I could go back in time and NOT wear his autographed hat.
God, I love Phil! Always have, always will. The shortest amount of time in unrecorded history is the time I saw the title of this video, and the time I clicked.
I love it. I love that he always goes for the crazy shot. It’s just more fun. He doesn’t care if he doesn’t pull it off. He just moves on to the next crazy shot.
I'm sure he cares if he pulls it off. He's playing in tournaments that he wants to win. It's just that hes gotten so good at the crazy shots that hes more often better going for it than taking a drop and losing a stroke.
"Let's take a look at this shot. What happened? Just men in black uniforms grabbing a fifty five-year-old uh you know woman just choking ah you're gonna learn who we are you're gonna learn to submit the foreign bankers have given us unlimited power and we're gonna rule you this is our country your here and WE'RE GONNA FEED ON YOUR ASS!, AND THE COPS JUST DRINK FLUORIDE WATER, AHHH THEY TAKE THEIR KIDS AND JUST SHOOT 'EM UP WITH MERCURY and the kids become autistic the cops don't care they're I'm GOING TO THE TIT BAR I don't care if my kids brain-damaged they drink whiskey and wreck and kill everybody in Austin and then when they wreck and kill themselves the cops then go and SWAT team the bar owners that sold them too much whiskey it's your fault you sold too much whiskey to a god. YOU DON'T SELL TOO MUCH WHISKEY TO A GOD! We're God! You understand we roll America; we'll shoot you in the face, we'll bloody your face, and we'll laugh about it because we're weak gang members!"
This why Phil is my favorite player. He is not afraid of any shot. His shot out of the pine needles at the 13 th hole , AUGUSTA, 2010 MASTERS. One of the all time great shots.
@@GusLascola Hi Gus. FYI, here's my video regarding golf in Arctic Russia. Not the same caliber as Phil Mickelson, but it's golf! ruclips.net/video/uYsY-yhpYhw/видео.html

What a master. He had a near impossible shot, maybe at Torrey, where he was behind a tree, the green was a dog leg right, and Phil went for it. Purposely sliced it around the tree onto the green. Crazy.
Adam Boyle Everyone hits the fairway. But not everyone has some crazy ass miracle like every round. Lol. It’s more fun that way. Builds the suspense. Lol
Phil is like a lovable mad scientist. He's gonna try some shit, and sometimes it'll work, and sometimes it won't, but either way you can't help but root for him.
hopefully phil and tiger fornicate one day, thatll be a hell of a golfer
@유민환 phil, tiger is the top

The guy is entertaining.. He plays golf like us amateurs do... He goes for shots no other pro would.
shaun king but then he’ll go stick the next 3 to 6 inches and have 3 birds in a row.

Yep and if you listen carefully she says winner of 34 tour events. Now he’s up to over 80 and counting
Always a smile on his face even when he shanks it, because he knows he at least went for it

Who wouldn't choose driver out of a bush...
Me
99.99 percent of golfers

I sense a joke in there somewhere... ;)
The ball was suspended in the mid air, he could actually get a club on it

He was playing with speith and they thought he was going to take a drop but he ended up playing it. That’s why they were so shocked.
Verlisify watches golf???
Made me laugh
Just finished 2nd at The 2023 Masters. UNREAL. He's incredible
Love that Phil has the guts to hit these amazing shots after signing with live
Phil is certainly one of a kind. The most popular player on tour, and for good reason. And now the oldest major champion in the history of the PGA
"Play safe" and "lay up" two phrases not in Phil's lexicon. And that folks, is why we love him.
Can we take a second to thank this guy for making the thumbnail the first clip
I was working at the masters and Phil almost hit me with a ball on the first hole in 2019, he’s now my favorite player

looks like my golf shots.only difference is he still makes par and birdies.on the other hand I make 8 and 9s😉
8s are good!!
Fuck i pick up. What da take? Budweiser.
5:26 after the ball lands, look at the guy looking around wondering where the ball came from.
That was Jordan Spieth
You’re gonna wanna get this one😉. That’s my favorite phil one liner of all time
Love the way he plays. Every shot matters, any shot is possible, not every time, but sometimes.
This guy did really good this year, I'd never seen him on the tour before and my first thoughts were "this dude knows how to party" 😂
Phil 'Magic' Mickelson. His eccentricity and sublime shotmaking has been a joy to watch.
What a great compilation! Absolutely riveting, every second.

Phil proves that recovery is possible in golf and possibly in life. The man is an inspiration.
The wedge on the 12th hole at TPC Boston was insane! Adam Scott was in awe. That should be added :)
@Hello Chris Rogers, How are you doing?
Hands down, the most entertaining golfer I’ve ever seen. His short game touch is borderline not human.
Phil is the human personification of "play it where it lies"
Didn't think I'd watch the whole thing, watched the whole thing and glad I did
Hope you enjoyed it!
who’s here after phil won the 2021 pga championship
Definitely, one of the most fearless players of all time.
this is a classy compilation
i never wanted this video to end
I wish more pros played with this mentality!
I'll not lie, this is one of the best videos on RUclips...
Crowd: Cant you just golf normally?
Phil: *defiantly screaming*
So much skill... so much humor... What a legendary, entertaining player.
“How do you hit the ball there?” Story of Phil’s whole career. 😂
As the game has evolved I appreciate Phil way more now. Legend
The sequence at 4:50 is just insane. Only Phil would even think of grabbing a club in that situation lmao
The fact that he causes a huge dust storm and falls over is just hilarious
Never watched, played or even played a golf video game but I enjoyed this
When his right handed swing looks better than my swing.......... and I’m right handed
That was classic at the end! Well done
My all time favorite is Spieth's reaction to the shot at 5:30.
I have tried so many stupid shots because of this man
😂
“Driver off the deck out of the rough”
*almost kills someone 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Phil is actually right handed. He golfs left handed.

No, not like you do!
I'm the same way-- im right handed but shoot golf and hockey left handed
Don't even watch golf, but already live watching this guy
4:50 that’s ridiculous. I would never think of playing that.
Phil is truly one of the most gentleman players in the game
5:00 " ...pointed at a ball in the *fart trees* " is this where Phil Mickelson stays overnight? He looks comfortable in the fart trees.
Far trees
Phil has the one thing you need to pull shots like this off, the self confidence that he can actually do it
Who else here after he just won the PGA tour?
My favorite of all time. We love you Philly mick!!
I think he just has 50 million dollars and wants to have fun
Net worth of 400 million
While everyone else is playing the fairways and greens, Phil’s somewhere in the jungle with a 3wood 😂 and he still birdies
Kinda mixed feelings watching this in 2022...
not really, are you 10? No one gives a fuck. He says worse on the golf course daily with his friends. The internets way to fucking soft
I really liked that "oh it is"
I don't watch much golf but I do enjoy it and him interacting with a fan like that was nice. Also it was an amazing shot.
You forgot the most Phil being Phil moment when he hit his moving ball at the 2018 US Open...
and then lied about the reason.
Love this guy. One of the top 10 of all time imo
I'm telling you this guy spends more time in the hospitality area than David hasselhoff
What a master. He had a near impossible shot, maybe at Torrey, where he was behind a tree, the green was a dog leg right, and Phil went for it. Purposely sliced it around the tree onto the green. Crazy.
1:42 I was hoping Phil pulled this shot of just because Robert Damron was running his mouth.
First clip is the thumbnail. As it should be. I thank you for this.
* almost kills someone* I can't.
Without any doubt P. Mick. is the most creative and entertaining golfer that has ever lived ... !
Where you been bro?
Busy my guy expect some more vids soon though
Who’s here after he won the 2020 pga championship
How does he even get the ball perfectly under a fence to hit or something
Why does fence even do cant something go under the green he wont hit ball yeah?
To all the other Golfers out there ,, NEVER GIVE UP 💚🏌️⛳
If he could hit a fairway he wouldn’t have to do all these insane shots.
Fair point.
But then he wouldn’t be Phil
Bet he’s never thought of that.
Adam Boyle
Everyone hits the fairway. But not everyone has some crazy ass miracle like every round. Lol. It’s more fun that way. Builds the suspense. Lol
This doesn't happen every shot he takes genius
