Phil Mickelson has won 40 PGA Tour events, four major championships, competed on nine Presidents Cup and nine Ryder Cup teams. Marvelous accomplishments all, even though his Ryder Cup of 14-18-6 is certainly not of the caliber one might expect from an elite player. But let’s play a little “what if” game.
