Phil Mickelson’s latest social media activity appears to confirm one prominent LIV Golf critic and PGA Tour member asked to join LIV Golf…for $55m.
Did Phil Mickelson just confirm this prominent LIV critic asked Norman for $55m?
Even though Phil Mickelson has returned to social media since creating that firestorm when he joined LIV Golf, he has remained largely a much quieter presence.
We haven’t had any ice cream analogies to bash the USGA. Nor have we had any preening about his massive calf muscles.
But every now and again Mickelson, now 52, comes from the top rope after lurking in the shadows.
He’s done it again.

It may be nothing, but this would be sensational if true.
It all started when Hank Haney – a former coach of Lefty’s arch nemesis Tiger Woods – made the suggestion on his podcast that there is one prominent LIV Golf critic who had previously asked the breakaway tour for $55m.
It was suggested by some on social media that this player in question was Billy Horschel.
Greg Norman’s LIV apparently said no, which is curious given some of the players currently on their roster.
