Phil Mickelson Psoriatic Arthritis Diet.

Everybody’s a Survivor – In One Way Or Another!!!
Phil Mickelson on how a bad diet led to him developing arthritis and
how his new regime is paying off. Mickelson has managed to burn more calories than he takes in, which explains how he is in such good shape.
The diet contains of many food groups, mainly lean cuts of beef, pork,
and poultry, preferably grass-fed, organic, or free-range selections which have proven to be healthier.

For Phil Mickelson, the best part of waking up is a personalized coffee concoction.
fOR Phil friend’s Dave Phillips, the co-founder of the Titleist Performance Institute.
He is responsible for Mickelson’s coffee obsession.
“I’m a coffee custodian,” says Phillips. “I find the best and share it with
my friends. If there was such a thing as a coffee sommelier, I would be it.”
Mickelson brews his magic elixir in a Presse, made by Bobble.
Here is the tick-tock from Phillips: “Fill to the top with coarse ground Ethiopian Yirgacheffe coffee, then add water heated to 200 degrees.
Stir five or six times, wait three minutes and then plunge it.
(If you wait too long the beans get bitter.)

Phil then pours it into a Bodum pot and adds Califa Farms almond milk,
a dash of cinnamon, a few Yiragacheffe Cacao nibs (80%) and a little medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) oil, which is extracted from coconuts. With a hand electric blender he mixes it until slightly frothy and that’s it.

Meet Kyler Aubrey, the golf fan who got the ball after that amazing
bunker shot by Phil Mickelson at PGA Championship.

Incredible moment at PGA Championship – Statesboro Herald
Buried in Kyler Aubrey’s closet is a Masters flag from 2013 signed by just one player: Phil Mickelson. When Aubrey met Mickelson and his wife Amy that year at Augusta National, Mickelson immediately bent down to sign Aubrey’s flag. But Mickelson accidentally wrote the wrong name on it – subsequently scribbled it out – and a horrified Amy promised the Aubrey family that her husband would sign a new one and they’d have it shipped.
Sure enough, the flag showed up a few weeks later at Aubrey’s home in Statesboro, Georgia. On Sunday at the PGA Championship, Aubrey acquired another piece of Mickelson memorabilia. He and his dad Josh were just inside the ropes by No. 5 green at Kiawah Island’s Ocean Course when Mickelson holes out from the sand, securing the birdie that helped him separate himself from the pack.
“When we were there we could actually see a perfect view of Phil making the shot and we were just screaming. When Phil made it, he came up to us and said, “Here’s my lucky ball, I want you guys to have it, thank you for coming,” Josh said.
“…We were so in the moment that we didn’t even notice that Kyler had dropped the ball. Phil turned around and picked it back up and set it on his lap.”

Love to see it.  @PhilMickelson #PGAChampionship pic.twitter.com/UYIRUHnU3k

Kyler Aubrey, 28, has cerebral palsy and is in a wheelchair. At Kiawah,
the sand is particularly hard for him to navigate – something Josh realized in 2012. The Aubreys had practice-round tickets to that PGA Championship, and then lucked into tickets for the rest of the week, too. Statesboro is only a 2 ½-hour drive from the South Carolina coast.

“While we were going around the course we kept getting stuck,” Josh said. “David Feherty came up to us and said I noticed you guys kept getting stuck – this was like Sunday afternoon – he said I want to give you this all-access pass, you can go anyway you want to on the golf course.”
Feherty’s generosity made a world of difference in traversing the difficult terrain. It also helped spark lifelong friendships. Roughly an hour before McIlroy closed out his win that year, Josh and Kyler were near the scoring
tent. “I was like, I wonder if we can go up here,” Josh remembered thinking. “We went in there and they let us through and all the golfers that finished would walk right by us.”
The Aubreys had spoken with Graeme McDowell in a practice round early last week, and when McDowell saw them sitting there on Sunday, he joined them
to chat with Kyler for nearly an hour. McDowell then introduced the family to Rory McIlroy.
Through the years, the Aubreys have maintained those friendships as they’ve attended Tour events all around the Southeast like the Players Championship and the Tour Championship. McIlroy always seeks out Kyler to catch up, Josh says, and the Aubreys have stayed at McDowell’s house a couple of times while attending the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill. McIlroy provided tickets for this week’s PGA Championship.

A few years ago, Rickie Fowler, who has also become a friend, approached the Aubreys on the back of the practice range at Bay Hill and, when he found out they didn’t have Masters tickets for that year, got them tickets for the whole week.
Statesboro is also only an hour and a half from Augusta, so Kyler and Josh
have frequently attended the Wednesday practice round at the Masters.
Kyler enjoys Wednesdays the most because it’s when he can interact with the players he’s developed relationships with through the years. He has been a golf fan since he was just a little boy, when Josh used to take him to the golf course and bungee his car seat into the golf cart while he played. Kyler loved to watch.
“When he was little, like 2 or 3 years old, he would get over to the TV & change the channel to the Golf Channel. Instead of watching cartoons, he was watching the Golf Channel,” Josh said.

Tiger Woods was just gaining in popularity about that time, and the Aubreys attended the Tour event in Hilton Head, South Carolina, in 1999 – the only year Woods played the event.
“Kyler was 6 when that happened, when he played,” Josh said.
“That just kind of took it to a new level and then that’s all he wanted to do.”
Kyler’s younger sister Sloan, 19, also loves golf. She has played since the sixth grade, and continues to play, though not collegiately. Sunday at the PGA Championship was particularly special because Sloan was with the boys, too.

When Kyler was 22 and Sloan was 12, their brother Jordan, 17, died in a car accident. That’s when Kyler and Sloan grew closer. Golf has always brought the family together. The PGA Championship, however, marked the first time — in nearly two years the Aubreys had gotten to be fans because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
At a tournament, Kyler is always an easy person for Tour players to spot.
eople would see him and he’s always in a good mood, he loves being out there, he’s always got a big smile and he always wants to give those guys hugs,” Josh said. “I think that’s what he likes so much about golf is they’ll interact with him.” Kyler brightens their day, just as they brighten his.

Open 2013: VIDEO – Phil Mickelson hits flop shot backwards | Daily Mail Online

Brotherly love: Phil Mickelson wins the PGA Championship with brother Tim on the bag

Mickelson’s victory has inspired every golfer in his 40s or even early 50s to dream big again. Now it’s a reality for older golfers to compete and win on the biggest stage.
“It was unbelievable watching that,” said Colleyville resident and Texas A&M product Ryan Palmer, who is 44. “I was glued to the TV. It was a very special, very emotional win. It just shows you that anyone can win out here. There’s no doubt in my mind that I can win out here again. It’s just a matter of time.”
Along with players in their 40s, Mickelson’s victory has also resonated with the younger players on tour. Jordan Spieth, a 27-year-old who has already won three majors, used the terms “wild” and “incredible” to describe Mickelson’s victory.
Spieth also acknowledged how Mickelson has made himself available to the younger players. He’s always been really helpful to the younger guys on getting us pumped up, inspired, somebody you could bounce ideas off of,” Spieth said. “To have that person be so welcoming and be so good to the younger generation out here too and then set the example he has, I think we’re really lucky with that.”

The respect goes both ways. Mickelson raved about seeing 48-year-old
Richard Bland win for the first time on the European Tour earlier this month. It was Bland’s 478th career start on the European Tour. He’s also enjoyed seeing players in their late 40s such as Stewart Cink and Brian Gay win on tour of late as well as players such as Spieth find their way back to the winner’s circle.“
There’s places to find motivation and inspiration all over,” Mickelson said.
“I really get a lot more out of playing with the young players than they get out of playing with me because I get to see what I need to be able to do to compete.”
Nobody is playing the game better than Mickelson these days. 
He crushed a 366-yard drive, the longest of the day, on the 16th during Sunday’s final round at the PGA Championship, and he made the clutch
shots down the stretch.
Everybody noticed, including the 2020 PGA Championship winner Collin Morikawa. Morikawa was 23-years-old when he won the PGA compared to Mickelson being 50.
“Golf’s in a great spot. Anyone can win. Anyone can play well,” said Morikawa, who is in Colonial’s field following a runner-up finish in 2020. “I thought about Phil’s win, and it’s not like I’ve seen Phil’s entire career. He won his first event 30 years ago. I’m 24 now. I still consider him as a competitor. It’s not like he stopped and he’s trying to get better. He’s trying every day to get better.
“It’s cool to see someone at 50 like that come out and win because it just gives me hope. It gives me just that passion because I love this game and want to play as long as I can.”

David Feherty, Phil – Bing video

ORLANDO, Fla. (Feb. 27, 2017) – World Golf Hall of Fame member and
5 time major champion Phil Mickelson joined Emmy-nominated television personality David Feherty Monday, March 6 at 9 p.m. ET on the season premiere of Feherty. Part I of a two-part interview with Mickelson, the premiere will kick off the seventh season of the original series, which will celebrate the 100th episode milestone in 2017 and welcome Farmers Insurance(R) as the show’s presenting sponsor.

A 42-time PGA TOUR winner, Mickelson has built a career around his flair
for the dramatic and an aggressive playing style, with the sum of countless signature moments elevating him into one of the most beloved fan-favorites in the history of the sport. Filmed at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar in San Diego, Mickelson discusses a wide range of topics with Feherty, including: · Winning his first Masters in 2004, and why his 2010 Masters victory was the first time he ever cried after winning a golf tournament.

· Justifying his second shot on the 13th hole at Augusta National from the
pine straw in his final round of the same 2010 Masters, and explaining how it was a calculated “percentage play,” accounting for the least margin of error.

· The outpouring of emotional support his family received from fans and the golf community when both his wife Amy and mother Mary were diagnosed with breast cancer just six weeks apart in 2009.

Emotional Masters win for Mickelson

In 2010, Mickelson won the Masters Tournament on April 11 with a 16-under-par performance, giving him a three-stroke win over Lee Westwood The win marked the third Masters victory for Mickelson and his fourth major championship overall.[47]
 Critical to Mickelson’s win was a dramatic run in the third round on Saturday in which Mickelson, trailing leader Westwood by five strokes as he prepared his approach shot to the 13th green, proceeded to make eagle, then to hole-out for eagle from 141 yards at the next hole, the par 4 14th, then on the next, the par 5 15th, to miss eagle from 81 yards by mere inches. After tapping in for birdie at 15, Mickelson, at −12, led Westwood, at −11, who had bogeyed hole 12 and failed to capitalize on the par 5 13th, settling for par.

Westwood recaptured a one-stroke lead by the end of the round, but the momentum carried forward for Mickelson into round 4, where he posted a bogey-free 67 to Westwood’s 71. No other pursuer was able to keep pace to the end, though K. J. Choi and Anthony Kim made notable charges. For good measure, Mickelson birdied the final hole and memorably greeted his waiting wife, Amy, with a prolonged hug and kiss.[48]
For many fans, Mickelson’s finish in the tournament was especially poignant, given that Amy had been suffering from breast cancer during the preceding year. Mary Mickelson, Phil’s mother, was also dealing with cancer. CBS Sports announcer Jim Nantz‘s call of the final birdie putt, “That’s a win for the family,” was seen by many as capturing the moment well.[49]

Tiger Woods had a dramatic return to competitive play after a scandal-ridden 20-week absence; he was in close contention throughout for the lead and finished tied with Choi for 4th at −11. Mickelson and others showed exciting play over the weekend, and the 2010 Masters had strong television ratings in the United States, ranking third all-time to Woods’s historic wins in 1997 and 2001.[50]      SOURCE:   Phil Mickelson – Wikipedia·

Record viewership for Feherty in 2016
Season six of Feherty last year earned the highest “average viewers per minute” on both a Live+Same Day, and Live plus 3-day DVR playback basis since the series initially premiered in 2011. The two-part 2016 season premiere of the series featuring Jordan Spieth became the second and third most-watched Feherty premiere episodes on record (2011-2016) behind only the original series premiere the Monday following the U.S. Open in June 2011.
Part II of Spieth’s interview also became the most-watched premiere of any Golf Channel original production since Arnie on Masters Sunday in April 2014.

Feherty is coming off a banner year in 2016, highlighted by sitting down with now four U.S. Presidents: Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump; serving as an NBC Olympic correspondent in Rio; appearing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon; being profiled on the Emmy award-winning HBO original series, Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel; and playing a key role in NBC Sports’ unprecedented 12-week stretch of premier golf events beginning with The Open and concluding with the Ryder Cup.

Described as “Golf iconoclast” by Rolling Stone, and “a cross between
Oprah Winfrey and Johnny Carson” by The New York Times, Feherty has made a name for himself not only through his self-titled Golf Channel talk show, but as one of the most irrepressible personalities calling golf over the past two decades. Beyond golf, Feherty continues to capture new and broader audiences with his wit and self-deprecating nature. A native of Northern Ireland and a former professional golfer who claimed 10 worldwide victories and a spot on the 1991 European Ryder Cup team, Feherty is now a proud American citizen who has risen above a history of alcoholism and addiction to become an Emmy-nominated television host, New York Times best-selling author and comedic relief for thousands of men and women in uniform.

David Feherty’s Charmed Life: Golf’s Iconoclast Comes Clean.
How a hard-partying former pro cheated death, got sober and changed the game – all while remaining unquestionably cool.

David William Feherty, (born 13 August 1958) is a former professional golfer and current golf broadcaster. As a touring professional he won 5 – European Tour events, seriously competed at the Open Championship twice (1989 and 1994), and played on Europe’s 1991 Ryder Cup team.
Late in his career he joined the PGA Tour. Since retiring, he has worked as a television personality; from 1997 through 2015 Feherty served as an on-course reporter for the PGA Tour on CBS. In 2011, he introduced a self-titled interview series on Golf Channel and subsequently joined NBC Sports full-time in 2016.

A Vandyke-bearded bipolar alcoholic who sometimes covers PGA tournaments while dressed like a pirate will be doing the play-by-play. “I’ve never been sure about the whole drug-testing aspect of the Olympics,” says David Feherty, a former European Tour player from Northern Ireland whose training regimen once included weed, cocaine and a daily dose of 40 Vicodin and two and a half bottles of whiskey. “If they come up with a drug that helps you play golf better, I am going to be so pissed – I looked for that for years.”

In the staid world of pro golf, Feherty is a smart, funny wild card whose cult celebrity is transcending the sport. He covers PGA tournaments while describing a player as having “a face like a warthog stung by a wasp” on live TV, does standup, writes bestselling novels and hosts a Golf Channel show where he gets guests like Bill Clinton and Larry David to open up about their games and lives. Feherty’s secret? Sober since 2005, he’s now got nothing to hide. “One of the advantages of having a fucked-up life is that other people are more comfortable telling you about theirs,” he says. “I see from a different side of the street than most people.”

Born on the outskirts of Belfast, Ireland
Feherty turned pro at 18 and quickly embraced the European Tour’s hard-living lifestyle. In 1986, after winning the Scottish Open in Glasgow, he went
on a bender — and awoke two days later on a putting green 150 miles away – alongside Led Zeppelin’s road manager, with no recollection of getting there or what happened to his silver trophy. Once while playing in the Swedish Open, he went out for a drink and woke up the next day in Denmark. — “After that, I always kept $600 in my wallet,” he says, “because that’s exactly what it cost me to get back to the golf club just in time to miss my starting time.”

After a middling pro career, he became a PGA Tour commentator in 1997, eventually moving to Dallas, raising a family, getting diagnosed with bipolar disorder and sobering up. An insomniac who still struggles with depression – “I get overwhelmed by sadness several times a day and spend a lot of time in tears” – Feherty has managed to achieve success by channeling his restlessness into his work. “I now take 14 pills a day – antidepressants, mood stabilizers and amphetamines,” he says. “The Adderall is enough to tear most people off the ceiling, but I can take a nap.”

For Feherty, 2016 will be a turning point. After 19 years working as a commentator for CBS, he’ll move to NBC – a transition that allows him to take his talent beyond the fairways. In addition to the Olympics, he’ll cover the international Ryder Cup and other tournaments while continuing to host his talk show – and is even looking to conquer new sports.

“Remember Fred Willard in Best in Show?” he asks. “If there’s a place somewhere for a golf analyst where no technical knowledge is required,
I would love to jump in – I just want to be challenged again.”

As he prepares for the next chapter in his improbable career, Feherty spoke to Rolling Stone about partying like a rock star, cultivating his rumpled mystique and changing the face of golf.

A lot of musicians are also avid golfers – why do you think that is?

So many musicians play golf, especially people in rock & roll, but most of them use golf as an alternative to drugs and alcohol. I think for addicts, spare time is their worst enemy. And you know, golf takes up time – actually it’s one of the problems with the game, but it works in our favor.

Speaking of, there’s a lot of talk these days about trying to make golf faster, to attract younger viewers and get more people playing. Does the sport need to change to survive?

Golf has always gone against the image that it’s for rich white men, and to a certain extent, it is, but before Sam Snead it was a bunch of twitty old duffers smoking pipes and wearing jackets. Sam Snead really made it look like an athletic pastime. Arnold Palmer kind of started the modern era – he made it sexy back in the ’50s and ’60s. And Tiger Woods reinvented the game.
We’re seeing the effect of that now, with these youngsters that have come up – Rory McIlroy and Jordan Spieth and Jason Day and Rickie Fowler, and dozens more of these colorful characters – they were 9, 10, 11 years old when Tiger Woods was on his feet, and they’re making the game cool again. Golf reinvents itself every 20 or 30 years or so.

Thirty years ago, you won the Scottish Open – then woke up two days later
on a green alongside Led Zeppelin’s former road manager.

Can you tell the story there?

Well, I won the 1986 Scottish Open and it seemed like a good idea. That was back when I was really just getting into not just golf and being successful, but the rush of performing in front of a bunch of people and applause and adulation. I didn’t know it at the time, but I’m bipolar and it was something to deal with the strangeness in my life. I got addicted to painkillers fairly early. You know, “comfortably numb,” as Pink Floyd put it. And that’s where I needed to be at the time. And I’m Northern Irish, so I remember the last physical I had with my doctor where alcohol became a problem. He looked at the numbers and said, “Hey, have you ever thought about getting help?” And I said, “No, I can drink it all by myself.”

That particular instance was kind of during the ascent of those problems.
I headed into Glasgow that night to a concert and woke up two days later at Gleneagles, which was 150 miles away, and Peter was poking me with a stick like a dead stag. I had half of a train ticket to London that I hadn’t used.
So I came to London and got back to Scotland – but I had no idea how. It’s still confusing to this day. Oh, and the Scottish Open trophy is still lost. God only knows where the hell it is.

What was a typical day like for back then, in terms of drugs and alcohol?
A typical day was 30-40 Vicodin and two and a half bottles of whiskey…real whiskey. Whiskey with an ‘e.’ There was cocaine, there was dope.
When I think about it now I’m like, “Why am I alive?”

You mentioned bipolar disorder and kind of self-medicating.
When did you actually get diagnosed?

Really only about ten years ago. That was right at the time when I was sober. That was the first time I had seen a psychiatrist. And I went for about six of those [sessions] before I got properly diagnosed. I was like, “Oh shit, really? There’s a word for how I feel?” It was quite a revelation to me. I was with CBS at that point, and let me see…I’ve been in the broadcasting industry for almost 20 years now.

What finally helped you get sober?

It was two things: My wife and Tom Watson. I was doing a TV thing in Canada with Jack Nicklaus and Tom, and at one point, Tom just put his hand over the camera and said, “You’re not well, are you?” and I said, “No, I’m not.” I asked him how he knew, and he said, “I can see it in your eyes.” And I said, “What do you see?’” and he said, “My reflection.’”

And I didn’t know that Tom had a problem at that point. Very few people did. He said, “You need to come with me when we’re done here.” And I’m trying to back out; we’re on Prince Edward Island, and Tom’s [lives in] Kansas City, so
I said, “How am I going to get to Kansas City?” And I hear this voice behind me say, “I have a G5!” So I’m getting heckled by Jack Nicklaus, who sent me there with his G5, and I went with Tom and he looked after me for 2 or 3 days and I’ve been sober ever since.

But I would emphasize it has a great deal to do with my wife, as well.
When I met her I was penniless, I had lost my damn [playing] privileges in the United States, I was homeless, I had a vehicle that was all I had, because I had been through this horrifying divorce. I was just a penniless, homeless, alcoholic drug addict and she looked at me and said, “Well I can fix that.”

I read you have short-term memory loss because of all that.
Have you forgotten things on air?

Oh yeah! But to be honest with you, adrenaline kind of kicks in – and
I’m not quite sure how much of it is due to the blows to the head. I’ve had a tremendously accident-prone career with injuries, you know. I’ve been run over three times by motor vehicles. When I got sober I took to riding a bike, to fill in some of that free time that was so dangerous, and I’d been sober about nine months when I got run over by a trailer on my way home. Well, I got hit by the pickup truck that was towing the trailer first. I remember flying through the air and thinking to myself, “If this is a fucking beer truck, I will actually die from irony.”
