Golf analyst Brandel Chamblee delivered a scathing critique of Phil Mickelson and fellow LIV Golf players. A staunch PGA Tour supporter, Chamblee has consistently opposed the Saudi-backed league, voicing his disapproval across social media platforms.
On June 7, Chamblee reignited debate by criticizing Mickelson for prioritizing money over legacy. He mocked the perceived lack of competitive spirit in LIV events, contrasting it with the urgency players show in major championships.
Chamblee’s remarks follow a long history of public tension with Mickelson, especially since the latter joined LIV Golf. Their disputes have played out prominently online, adding to the ongoing PGA-LIV rivalry.
Meanwhile, Mickelson currently competes in the LIV Golf Virginia event. After strong rounds of 4-under and 3-under, he sits tied for fifth, trailing leader Anirban Lahiri by four shots ahead of Sunday’s finale.
