Phil Mickelson is no longer welcome at a California golf club after allegations that he made unwanted physical contact with a female employee.
Golf Digest cited multiple sources as saying Mickelson is no longer welcome at The Farms Golf Club in Rancho Santa Fe, California, where the six-time major champion has played and practiced for decades. The unwanted contact was said to have happened earlier this spring.
The San Diego County Sheriff’s office has confirmed that they investigated the alleged “nonconsensual, inappropriate contact” surrounding Phil Mickelson and a female employee at The Farms GC in Rancho Santa Fe, California.
In a statement, the Sheriff’s office told The California Post that it “made attempts to locate any evidence to support the potential allegation of a sexual assault” but said “at this time, we have not located any evidence to show an assault has occurred.”
“The Sheriff’s Office would absolutely investigate further if provided additional evidence or information. We encourage anyone with information regarding an incident such as this to reach out to the Sheriff’s Office.”
Mickelson, the chief recruiter in the launch of LIV Golf, has played only once this year because of a serious family health matter that has not been disclosed.
He did not play the Masters and PGA Championship and is no longer exempt for the U.S. Open.
