Golf great Mickelson accused of sending nudes to fellow pro’s wife

Grim.

Mickelson, 56, is one of the game's all-time greats, winning six major championships, before going on to be one of the main figure heads for the breakaway LIV Golf Tour.

The tales include inappropriate behaviour towards various women and infidelity while married to his wife Ashley, while he was also essentially kicked out of numerous golf clubs.

By far the most shocking alleged story involves the wife of his former fellow LIV Tour player, Pat Perez.

According to Ashley Perez, Mickelson approached her at dinner while her husband was using the bathroom.

He then proceeded to show her 'a full-body picture of himself naked with an erection while flexing one bicep.'

Ashley added: “Phil says to me, ‘I’m going to leave my bedroom door open tonight. When Pat falls asleep I want you to come see me.’"

With the two playing a tournament the next the day, she did not tell her husband until after, but he did not confront Mickelson.

However, when the story got around to fellow pros and became something of an urban legend, Mickelson eventually apologised to Perez at a a corporate outing at the Madison Club in La Quinta, California.
