Phil Mickelson had hilarious advice for Michael S. Kim, who hosted a Q&A on social media. He suggested that the PGA Tour pro give a hot take on golf and just enjoy the responses if he was feeling bored.
On Sunday, March 16, the Players Championship faced a few-hour delay due to rain. During the delay, Michael Kim announced the Q&A session on X, which received a lot of responses.
"How about a rain delay Q&A? (Yes, even though I’m not playing) I assume some golf fans are bored right now," he wrote.

One of the responders was Phil Mickelson, who offered a piece of hilarious advice to the one-time PGA Tour winner.
"If you’re bored throw out a few hot takes and see what happens 😂😂," he replied sarcastically.
Mickelson's comments were about his hot take on Scottie Scheffler, where he predicted that the World No. 1 golfer would go trophyless until the Ryder Cup later this year.
It was a pretty bold take considering Scheffler hasn't gone on such a long drought for more than three years now. He has not won a PGA Tour title in his past five starts, which is his longest winless stretch since 2023.
