Phil Mickelson plans to join Michael Jordan’s exclusive golf club

Phil Mickelson’s name has been in the news a lot recently for his upcoming match alongside Tom Brady against Tiger Woods and Peyton Manning.

The five-time major champion isn’t just competing in The Match: Champions for Charity, he’s also moving from San Diego to Florida and has his eyes on a new golf club: Michael Jordan’s exclusive The Grove XXIII.

“I’m actually in the process of joining his club there in Florida,” Mickelson revealed on Monday’s Dan Patrick Show when asked if he’s played with Jordan. “He did an exceptional job there.”

“You have to be invited,” Mickelson said of the process to join. “Fortunately, I know a number of members there, and my wife and I just bought a lot fairly close, about 10 to 15 minutes away. So it’ll be a great place to play and practice.”

Lefty also gave some background on how The Match came to be and told a story about playing golf with Brady and how he was able to run some routes for the six-time Super Bowl champion.
