Mickelson re-signs with Callaway Golf
Phil Mickelson has signed a multi-year contract extension with Callaway Golf.
“We are thrilled to extend our partnership with Phil,” said Callaway Golf President & CEO Chip Brewer. “He has meant so much to Callaway, and he continues to inspire us to develop the most innovative equipment in golf.”
Mickelson joined Callaway’s Tour Staff in 2004, and has since won 19 professional events that includes four major championships.
“When I joined the team at Callaway 10 years ago, I knew I was making the best decision of my career,” Mickelson said. “And I feel even stronger about that decision today. Backed by innovative technologies, industry-leading products, and the outstanding R&D group that works so closely with me, I honestly believe that these next few years will be the best of my career.”
Mickelson, 44, is currently the No. 11-ranked golfer in the world.
Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.
That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.
On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.
“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”
On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”
“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.
At GolfWRX, we are a community of like-minded individuals who all experience and express our enjoyment of the game in many ways.
It’s that sense of community that drives day-to-day interactions in the forums on topics that range from best driver to what marker you use to mark your ball. It even allows us to share another thing we all love – buying and selling equipment.

Michelson 44? I think that’s an error.

How much gambling debt did they cover this time?

Only the gambles that Phil takes on the course – some of which he is legendary, others of which he was “such an idiot.” This has to be the biggest no-brainer of all time in regards to equipment. Phil might as well have a seat right next to Phil Brewer at Callaway.

Phil is arguably the most polarizing player in golf. Whether or not re-signing with Callaway is his ticket to glory is the ultimate question. Phil Brewer had it right when he said “If I am the King of Calloway then Phil is my Jester”. Stay tuned.

I dare Phil Michelson to try using a PROBE 20/10 N putter with Break Reduction Technology! He’d make more short breaking putts and move up in status worldwide!
