Phil Mickelson has been removed as the host for the American Express PGA Tour event in 2023 after his comments regarding the Saudi Arabia-backed Super Golf League.
The PGA Tour revealed the news to Larry Bohannan of the Palm Springs Desert Sun, who also wrote that the Mickelson Foundation will no longer be part of the event either.
Mickelson's remarks occurred during a November 2021 interview with Alan Shipnuck for his upcoming biography, Phil: The Rip-Roaring (and Unauthorized!) Biography of Golf's Most Colorful Superstar.
However, the comments didn't come to light until Shipnuck released the Q-and-A in advance last week.
