Phil Mickelson has a long history of respecting and encouraging the next generation of golfers. Recently, he expressed his thoughts on Christo Lamprecht, who is currently competing on the Korn Ferry Tour. The LIV golfer reacted to the 24-year-old's recent interview with Flushing It Golf on what he keeps in his bag.

Surprisingly, the Flushing It's official X (previously Twitter) page was taken aback by what Christo Lamprecht had in his back. Normally, a golfer carries one driver and three or four wedges, but Lamprecht has two drivers and five wedges in his bag. The X page responded to this with a post with a caption that read,

"Korn Ferry Tour player, Christo Lamprecht, carries 2 drivers and 5 wedges in his bag! This might be the best example yet of just how much professional golf has changed over the last 2 decades. Wow!"

While fans had mixed reactions about this, Phil Mickelson had a positive opinion. The six-time Major winner replied to the post, saying he loved the idea. Phil Mickelson's comment read,

"I love this!👍👍"

Talking about Christo Lamprecht, he is one of the most talented young golfers. He finished second in the PGA TOUR University rankings in spring 2024. Not only that, but in September 2023, he was No. 1 in the World Amateur Golf Rankings. While discussing his golf bag, he says in the video,

"I've had this since the sophomore year of college. It just says control what you can, and then just the Christian cross on it. But so it just kind of part of my routine just to like really just stay in the moment and not get fed up if I miss a putt or something goes bad or wrong or just a bad swing or it's just not my day, just kind of be, just get as much out of the round as possible."
