Phil Mickelson will be keen to win his second trophy in the
2020/21 PGA Tour season by clinching the Rocket Mortgage Classic title.
The American golf legend is coming into this tournament having won this year's PGA Championship.
Mickelson, who is currently ranked 31st in the Official World Golf Rankings, has won 45 events on the PGA Tour, including six major championships.

Nicknamed Lefty, Mickelson has won three Masters titles (2004, 2006, 2010), two PGA Championships (2005, 2021),[3] and one Open Championship (2013).
Lefty became the oldest major championship winner in history at the age of 50 years, 11 months and seven days old after clinching the 2021 PGA Championship title.
The former world number two has won every major except the U.S Open, in which he has finished runner-up a record six times.
His history of “hitting bombs” is expected to attract thousands of fans to the Detroit Golf Club when the PGA Tour makes its way to Rocket Mortgage’s hometown, Michigan.

Jason Langwell, the executive director of the Rocket Mortgage Classic, is looking forward to having Mickelson at the Rocket Mortgage Classic.
“As evidenced by his record-breaking performance last weekend at the PGA Championship, Phil is one of the best to ever play the game, an electric performer and continues to be a huge draw for fans attending PGA Tour events,” Langwell said.
“Adding a player like Phil, along with the major champions and Top-50 players who have also committed, is shaping the strongest field in Rocket Mortgage Classic history.”
