Phil Mickelson reacts to utterly hilarious henna tattoo of his own logo
Phil Mickelson attacked the PGA Tour at his LIV Golf press conference in Jeddah where he showed off his henna tattoo from an iconic Masters moment.
Phil Mickelson rocked up at LIV Golf Jeddah where he was awkwardly asked to clarify his comments about his bosses being "scary motherf******".
As you would expect, Lefty battered away the question fairly swiftly, claiming that he never did an interview with the author who published his comments that led to his brief exile from the golf world.
"I find that my experience with everybody associated with LIV Golf has been nothing but incredibly positive and I have the utmost respect for everybody that I've been involved with," Mickelson said.

Mickelson also attacked the PGA Tour, claiming that now he believes he is on "the winning side" and if the two rivals don't sit down together and negotiate a path forward then he only sees one thing happening.
"Until both sides sit down and have a conversation and work something out, both sides are going to continue to change and evolve," he said.
"And I see LIV Golf trending upwards, I see the PGA Tour trending downwards and I love the side that I'm on. And I love how I feel. I love how I'm reinvigorated and excited to play golf and compete. I love the experience. I love the way they treat us."
Mickelson appeared at his press conference at Royal Greens Golf & Country Club with a henna tattoo on his left hand.

It was supposed to be of his own logo taken from his iconic leap into the air when he finally captured his first major at the 2004 Masters.
It appeared that Mickelson was less than impressed with the result.
"It was supposed to be this," Mickelson said pointing to his logo. "Didn't really turn out that way."

Fortunately it's not permanent.
"It was just something we had last night at the dinner there," he said. "There was some people making little painting on little henna tattoos, so I went for it."
