Phil Mickelson’s Troubled History in Rancho Santa Fe Started Long Before His Golf Club Exit
Phil Mickelson's long-standing connection to the Rancho Santa Fe area has been marked by two distinct controversies. In 2001, the golfer and his spouse, Amy, acquired a local estate for $5.95 million, but they struggled for years to offload the property after listing it for over $12 million in 2008.
The residence eventually sold in 2015 for $5.7 million, resulting in a financial loss for the couple.
More recently, Mickelson's tenure at The Farms Golf Club concluded following accusations of improper behavior toward a female staff member. While the golfer's legal representative, Tom Clare, challenged the claims by citing supposed video proof, the club maintained that no such footage existed after investigating the incident.
