Phil Mickelson will ring in the new year by ending a 21-year hiatus.
The 51-year-old will end his two-decade-long lull by exercising his invitation to join the winners-only field at the Sentry Tournament of Champions in Hawaii after he became the oldest player to ever win a major at the PGA Championship in May.
Despite notching a PGA Tour win every year from 2000-2013, the last time Lefty played in the Sentry Tournament of Champions was 13 months into the new millennium in January 2001.
“We’re absolutely thrilled to welcome Phil Mickelson back to Kapalua, as his return adds additional star power to an incredibly deep and talented field,” said Alex Urban, the event's executive director.
