Phil Mickelson Will Miss 2 Golf Events Due to Undisclosed ‘Family Health Matter'
The 55-year-old golf pro said that he and wife, Amy, 'need to be present' for the matter in a Feb. 1 announcement
people.comHere’s the latest publicly reported context about Phil Mickelson:
Mickelson has been dealing with a family health matter and has publicly said he will miss some LIV Golf events while focusing on that issue. This was reported in early February 2026 and again in April 2026, with updates noting his limited schedule as the situation continues to unfold.[2][3]
As of mid-April 2026, he had not returned to compete at the Masters, with reports indicating he would be absent from that event and may remain away for an extended period while his family address the health matter.[1]
In terms of other tour activity, coverage from major outlets through April 2026 notes Mickelson’s limited LIV Golf participation for the season due to the ongoing family health issue, with ongoing speculation about his return date and tournament availability.[3]
If you’d like, I can narrow this to a specific aspect (e.g., confirmation of Masters status, current LIV schedule, or any official statements from his representatives) and pull the most recent statements or quotes. I can also summarize the timeline in a short bullets format or provide a one-paragraph update.
