Phil Mickelson is no longer welcome at a course he’s played at for decades, according to a new bombshell report containing serious accusations against the six-time major champion.
According to Golf Digest, a female employee at The Farms Golf Club in the San Diego area accused Mickelson of making inappropriate contact with her before a round of golf this spring. The Farms confirmed in a statement that Mickelson is no longer a member of the club.
The outlet explained that the employee at the club has been identified and verified, but declined to participate in the story. Multiple sources, however, shared more details of the alleged inappropriate conduct.

Mickelson allegedly approached the female employee at the clubhouse and made nonconsensual and inappropriate physical contact with her. The employee reported the incident to the supervisors of the club after rejecting the alleged advances after Mickelson returned to the golf course.
The report explains that club officials moved quickly and actually located Mickelson during the middle of his round, confronted him with the accusation on the golf course and told him to leave the premises. Mickelson reportedly left the facility before completing his round.

“The Farms conducts thorough reviews of all reported matters according to California Law and takes appropriate action when warranted, consistent with our commitment to integrity, excellence and accountability. To protect the safety and privacy of our staff and members, we are unable to speak further on this matter. We appreciate your understanding.”

The 55-year-old released a statement on April 2, a week ahead of the Masters, explaining that he would not be teeing it up at Augusta National and would be out for “an extended period of time as my family continues to navigate a personal health matter.”
