Again, without naming a source, Golf Channel’s Brentley Romine alleged that Phil Mickelson was given around $200 million to join with LIV.

How much did Phil Mickelson get paid for LIV?

Phil Mickelson turned pro 30 years ago this week, following one of the finest amateur seasons in history, which included three NCAA individual titles.

The PGA Tour has been kind to Lefty over the years, with the golfer earning an estimated $925 million on and off the course.

He’s about to get paid the most money he’s ever made.

According to Brentley Romine of the Golf Channel, the 51-year-old will receive around $200 million to join the Saudi-backed LIV Golf Invitational Series.

Two golf experts told Sportico that Mickelson’s reported compensation of $200 million and Dustin Johnson’s fee of $125 million were reasonable. Mickelson’s Sportfive representatives refused to comment on the settlement.

Mickelson’s rumored LIV payout brings his career earnings to $1.1 billion, making him the second golfer ever to earn $1 billion from prize money, sponsorships, appearance fees, and course design, after Tiger Woods.
