Lanny Wadkins calls Phil Mickelson ‘most disappointing figure’ in the game of golf
Eamon Lynch, the Golf Today presenter, brought up the recent allegations by Billy Walters, the Vegas gambler, who claimed that Mickelson wanted to bet on the 2012 Ryder Cup team he was a member of. Although ‘Lefty’ has denied betting on golf’s biggest international match play tournament, rumors began to appear about Mickelson’s betting addiction.
It seems like Wadkins is not a big Phil Mickelson fan. The golf veteran didn’t hold back when discussing Mickelson’s actions on and off the course. Wadkins’ made it very clear to Lynch what he thinks about the LIV golfer and his behavior over the last few years.
What did Wadkins say about Mickelson?
When asked about the gambling allegations, Wadkins, the 1977 PGA championship winner, told Lynch exactly what he thought about ‘Lefty’:
“I don’t know that there’s ever been a more disappointing figure in golf than Phil Mickelson,” he said. ”He was a beloved figure for a long time, we all marveled at the way he could play. But, just nothing looks kosher about what he’s doing these days.”
Wadkins was talking about Mickelson’s choice to join the Saudi-backed LIV Golf tour and his issues with gambling.
