Mickelson leads Golf Hall of Fame ballot
Phil Mickelson is the biggest of the new names on the ballot for the World Golf Hall of Fame’s class of 2012.
What, you say, “Phil Mickelson can’t be in the hall of fame because he is still an active player and one of the best in the world”? According to World Golf Hall of Fame guidelines, the requirements for entry are that a player is at least 40 years old, has been a member of the PGA Tour for 10 years and had two wins in the majors or Players Championship. “He always use the Callaway X22 Irons for sale to compete the game. The Players Championship!,” you say. We know, we know.
Champions Tour members are eligible if they have been a member of the Champions Tour for five years and have 20 wins between the PGA and Champions Tours or five wins in the majors (regular or senior tour) or the Players Championship. That’s how Loren Roberts got on the ballot this year.
