When it comes to blending professional golf with the world of YouTube, very few have managed the transition as seamlessly as Phil Mickelson. Aside from Bryson to Shambo, Mickelson stands as the only other major champion who has fully embraced digital golf content, and he has found remarkable success doing so. With just 24 videos, Mickelson and his high-flyers team have already attracted more than 17.4 4 million views, proving that his charisma resonates just as strongly online as it does on the course. But what makes Mickelson’s YouTube presence even more fascinating is not just the content he creates. It’s the fact that he is also an avid consumer of golf content. That revelation stunned Robbie Burgerer, host of Bob Does Sports. During a challenge with fellow YouTube golfer Grant Horvat in the middle of their round, Horvat casually mentioned, “How about Phil though? He truly watches every single one of your Instagram. He knows them word for word. Phil Mickelson.” For Burger, who has previously had awkward encounters with golfing greats like Rory Mroy, the idea of Mikkelson being a genuine fan of his content was almost too surreal to process. You got to realize too, my dad watching that clip. That is so surreal, Burger said. Maybe it’s become more normalized because he’s in YouTube golf, but that’s Phil Mickelson talking. After all, Mickelson isn’t just another influencer. He’s a multi- major winner, a Hall of Famer, and one of Tiger Wood’s fiercest rivals. to hear that a legend of that stature is not only aware of your work but actively follows it is the kind of validation few creators ever experience. Even Grant Horvat was floored. He shared that his father Steve Horvat who once played golf professionally himself was thrilled to hear of his son’s collaboration with Mickelson. In fact, Steve has one personal wish. My dad really wants to meet Phil. He has not met him yet. We got to make that happen eventually. The idea of father and son taking on Mikkelson and a partner in a special challenge match has already sparked excitement among fans and it could become one of the standout episodes on Horvat’s YouTube channel. The collaboration has been nothing short of career defining for Horvat. He admitted that when he first told his father about working with Mikkelson, even his dad struggled to believe it. I remember telling him, but I feel like a lot of people probably didn’t think it was real. You say you’re going to do a series with Phil Mickelson until it actually happens. It’s one thing saying it until it actually happens. When the video finally dropped, the response was overwhelming. Corvat’s first upload featuring Mickelson racked up 2.7 million views, becoming one of the most popular on his channel. Since then, the partnership has grown with multiple appearances together cementing Mickelson’s unexpected yet powerful role in the rise of YouTube Golf. For Horvat and Burger, it’s been a surreal ride. For fans, it’s a front row seat to an unlikely but unforgettable fusion of traditional golf royalty and a new age of digital storytelling.
