Phil Mickelson health issues

Phil Mickleson is having respiratory problems and was told to rest by his doctors yesterday. It isn’t known if the problems are smoke related due to the California fires or if he picked up something in Asia last fall. He supposedly hasn’t been feeling 100% for several months.

Phil’s plan is to try and play in the Wednesday Pro-Am so he can play this week.

I wonder how his kids are doing – they’ve been exposed to the smoke from the fires and I think he took them to Asia with him.

The cynic in me says this is his excuse for not looking thinner after the press reported on another 20 to 30 pound weight loss in Phil’s off season due to a fitness routine. He was told to rest and couldn’t work out 🙂
