Phil Parts With Butch: "I need to hear new ideas"

The biggest name in the Butch Harmon stable is bolting for a swing instructor to be determined.

Alan Bastable with the exclusive for golf.com, includes Mickelson's statement.

“I’ve learned a great deal from him in our eight years together,” Mickelson said in a statement to Golf.com. “It’s just that at the moment I need to hear new ideas from a different perspective.”

Butch is also putting a positive spin on the firing.

In a statement issued by Mickelson’s camp, Harmon said: “I’ve thoroughly enjoyed working with Phil and we’ve had great success together. Helping him win the Open Championship in 2013 was one of the pinnacles of my career. I see nothing wrong with him seeking advice from another source. We’re great friends and always will be.”
