“What in the F?...This is crazy bad”: Phil Mickelson reacts to report about child sexual assault cases in Colorado

Phil Mickelson recently reacted to a report about the alleged lack of adequate punishments for child sexual assaulters in Colorado. He reshared a post from another page on social media that talked about the issue.

Wall Street Apes' X page shared a report claiming that 70% of child rapists receive 'probation only sentencing'. The post also called for support to the child victims, to which Mickelson replied:

"What in the F? This is crazy bad. The parents will need to take the law into their own hands. Terrible. I wonder what the sentencing for that would be? Hopefully probation but knowing these idiots, 10- life."

On the competitive front, Phil Mickelson was last seen at the LIV Golf Korea event last week. He finished 50 with a total score of 7-over while Bryson DeChambeau won the tournament with 19-under.

Currently, Mickelson is placed 15th in the season-long standings with 40.43 points. Joaquin Niemann is topping the leaderboard after winning three events this season. So far, he is also the only player with three titles to his name in 2025.

"So I might of been off on that one" - Phil Mickelson takes back his words after Scottie Scheffler's win at CJ Cup Byron Nelson 2025

In March this year, Phil Mickelson responded to Trevor Immelman's X post to make a prediction about World no. 1 Scottie Scheffler. During the weather delay at the Players Championship earlier this year, Immelman had taken to his X account to ask fans for their thoughts amid the delay.

Mickelson had responded to the post by saying:

"Here’s a hot take. Does Scottie win in 2025 before the Ryder Cup? I don’t think so."

Scottie Scheffler had joined the 2025 season late after a freak hand injury in December last year. He wasn't able to win a title in the four starts he made before the Players Championship this year.

However, Trevor Immelman didn't agree with Phil Mickelson's "hot take" that Scheffler wouldn't be able to win an event before the Ryder Cup this year. The former suggested to "keep a receipt" of the post revisit "throughout the season".

Scottie Scheffler clinched his first title on the 2025 PGA Tour season at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson last week. He had dominated the event since the opening round itself and managed to convert it into a resounding eight-stroke victory.

Post his win, Immelman reshared his post about keeping a receipt on X. Mickelson responded to it by admitting "he might have been off" on his previous prediction and congratulated Scheffler on his "great performance". He wrote:

"So I might of been off on that one. Congrats to Scottie on a great performance."

Mickelson will next be seen at the LIV Golf Virginia event at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club from June 6 to 8, 2025.
