Phil Mickelson will be a Callaway man until he retires from competitive golf, the Carlsbad-based company announced today.

The terms of the 47-year-old’s deal were not released.

Mickelson, who joined Callaway from Titleist in 2004, will continue to play a full bag of Callaway clubs for the remainder of his career. He won four of his five major championships while playing the company’s equipment.

“Phil has meant so much to Callaway and to the game of golf,” said Callaway Golf President and CEO, Chip Brewer. “He is a dynamic athlete and an iconic ambassador. We are excited to continue our relationship with him for years to come.”

“Our long association has been hugely important to my career and this extended agreement is a great honor,” said Mickelson. “We’ve enjoyed close personal and working relationships for 13 years and I’m very grateful that it will continue through my playing days and beyond.”

Mickelson’s bag includes a Callaway Great Big Bertha Sub-Zero Driver, Great Big Bertha Epic Fairway Woods, prototype irons, an Odyssey Putter, and a Chrome Soft X Ball.

I bet on a per year basis, he’s not getting paid as much as did as he was in his prime. He’s on the tail end of his career.

A contract untill he ends his career? I hope he uses his lifetime exemption for the Masters till hes at least 80.

As long as you can get what Phil’s using from Callaway.

What? LH Blade irons? Callaway? Prototypes.

“Such a “tiny” market.”

Didn’t Phil win the British Open with a PING club in his bag too?

Testing Lorem Ipsum

What is Lorem Ipsum?

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Why do we use it?

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

GolfWRX is on site for the second major of 2026: The PGA Championship from Aronimink in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania.

The tournament’s location, just outside Philadelphia, and its status as a major championship mean GolfWRXers are in for a treat: WITBs from a strong field, custom gear celebrating the PGA Championship, and the rich culture of the City of Brotherly Love — we have noted a relative absence of cheesesteak-themed items thus far this week, but most of the rest of the usual suspects are well represented.
