Phil Mickelson remains a magician with a golf club in his hands. The six-time major championship winner, who will turn 55 next week, treated a disbelieving gallery to perhaps the most improbable shot of his career — which is saying something for one of the most creative players in history — during Sunday’s weather-delayed final round of LIV Golf Virginia at Robert Trent Jones Golf Club.

That birdie moved him to 13 under for the week, which was where he finished in a tie for 4th alongside Bryson DeChambeau, Thomas Pieters and Bubba Watson. They all ended up two shots behind winner Joaquin Niemann, who continues his dominance of LIV Golf this season as he again builds hype around his game entering the 2025 U.S. Open.
