Phil Mickelson describes himself on his Instagram account as a “Husband, Lefty, LIV Golfer”. The 45-time PGA Tour winner has a 27-year strong relationship with his wife Amy Mickelson. The love he shares for his partner can be seen via the various mentions he has made throughout his career.

While now the golfer is boasting the clean-shaven look, in 2022 he had grown his beard and mustache just to please his wife. So, what changed? His decision to get rid of his beard can also be attributed to his wife. 

Is Phil Mickelson beardless because of his wife?

In the 2022 US Open, it was the first time LIV Golf detectors appeared in a major since joining the rebel league. During a heated press conference, one reporter tried to lighten the situation and asked Phil about his growing beard. 

Throughout his career before, Mickelson wasn’t even seen sporting a beard. Mickelson revealed the beard was there because his wife liked it. His comment highlighted the nature of the relationship they share.

As Lefty explained, the gist of the story was, “Amy liked it, so as long as she likes it, it’s here and when she says it’s gone, it’s gone.” 

But that was 2022. Of late Phil has not been seen wearing a beard. It appears Mrs Mickelson has changed her mind about the beard book. Commendably, the couple have been together for the last 27 years through thick and thin.

The duo got hitched in 1996 and have three children together. Whether it was when Mickelson took a much-needed break to be there for his wife while she battled cancer or when Amy stood by him as Lefty recovered from his betting addictions, they’ve seen all the hardships and went through them hand in hand.

Sharing his gratitude on Instagram while confessing the dark past, Phil said, “She has loved me and supported me through my darkest and most difficult times…Because of her love, support, and commitment, I’m back on track to being the person I want to be.”

Their relationship has indeed stood the test of time. Everyone deserves a relationship as pure and strong as that of Phil and Amy. The golfer is currently preparing for the LIV Golf Jeddah.
