Golf star Phil Mickelson had a voluntary stay at an addiction treatment center, TMZ Sports reported on Wednesday.
Per the report, Mickelson was seeking help with “family trauma and addiction,” and he was no longer at the facility.
In June, Skratch Golf reported that Mickelson was kicked out of three golf clubs for inappropriate interaction with women and propositioned the ex-wife of another golfer by displaying a nude photo.
The Skratch article followed a report from Golf Digest that Mickelson had his membership revoked at The Farms Golf Club in Rancho Santa Fe, Calif., because of alleged nonconsensual and inappropriate physical contact with a female club employee.
Mickelson, through his representatives, denied all of the allegations. They issued a statement that called the Skratch story an “anonymously sourced drive-by shooting” that attempted to create “a compelling, click-bait narrative over an accurate one.”
Mickelson, 56, played just one tournament in 2026, tying for 48th at LIV Golf South Africa in March. He was one of the biggest names to leave the PGA Tour for upstart LIV Golf in 2022. However, Mickelson never won an event on the LIV circuit, which now faces an uncertain future after losing its financial backing from Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund.
His 45 wins on the PGA Tour include six major championships: the Masters in 2004, 2006 and 2010; the PGA Championship in 2005 and 2021; and the Open Championship in 2013.
