Phil Mickelson, favorite of his fans, wins PGA CHAMPIONSHIP at FIFTY YEARS OF AGE - HE PLAYS RIGHT-HANDED

 

Congrats to Phil Mickelson, at 50, winner of PGA Championship. Here's what the Times says:

Mickelson became the oldest winner of a major golf tournament after a tense final round on the treacherous Ocean Course at Kiawah Island.

Swamped by his hundreds of fans! 

Mickelson was born in San Diego, California,[10] to parents Philip Mickelson (an airline pilot and former naval aviator)[11] and Mary Mickelson (née Santos);

[12] he was raised there and in Scottsdale, Arizona. Mickelson is of Portuguese and Sicilian descent on his mother's side. His maternal grandfather, Alfred Santos (also Mickelson's middle name) was a caddie at Pebble Beach Golf Links and took Phil golfing as a child.[13] 

Although otherwise right-handed, he played golf left-handed since he learned by watching his right-handed father swing, mirroring his style.[1] Mickelson began golf under his father's instruction before starting school. 

Phil Sr.'s work schedule as a commercial pilot allowed them to play together several times a week and young Phil honed his creative short game on an extensive practice area in their San Diego backyard.[11] Mickelson graduated from the University of San Diego High School in 1988.

I was eating Daisy Cottage Cheese with Tomatoes. Remember, it was only later in life - in my 70s, I learned to eat cottage cheese with veggies, instead of fruit.
