Mickelson On World Tour Idea: "I’m listening to it, I think it’s intriguing."

Following his second round at the Farmers Insurance Open, Phil Mickelson discussed the possibility of a world tour and franchise concept as revealed here yesterday. From our discussion after an hour long post-missed cut practice session before he heads to Saudi Arabia:

“I’m curious but I don’t know enough to talk about it,” Mickelson said. “I’m listening to it, I think it’s intriguing. I just don’t know enough about it to comment publicly on it. But I hope to learn more.”

With the proposed franchise concept, Mickelson is undoubtedly a prime candidate for such a role on the new tour as a franchise owner.
