Although Phil Mickelson will miss this week's LIV Golf Virginia tournament, the six-time major winner is listed in the field for next week's PGA Championship.

The PGA of America released its 154-golfer field for the May 14-17 PGA Championship on Tuesday, and Mickelson is expected to tee it up at Aronimink Golf Club in Newtown Square, Pa. As a two-time tournament winner, he has a lifetime exemption into the PGA Championship.


Mickelson, 55, has only participated in one event on the 2026 LIV Golf schedule due to a family health matter.

He finished T48 at LIV Golf South Africa in March before missing last month's Masters, where he is a three-time champion.

Scott Vincent will replace the HyFlyers GC captain for this week's LIV Golf tournament at Trump National Golf Club in Washington, D.C.
