Reigning NCAA individual champion Michael La Sasso has signed a multi-year deal with LIV Golf's HyFlyers GC, teaming up with Phil Mickelson. The 21-year-old Ole Miss senior will forfeit his remaining college eligibility and a 2026 Masters exemption to debut in the league's opener in Saudi Arabia. This move highlights LIV's strategy of recruiting young talent amid tightening pathways on the PGA Tour.
Phil Mickelson, captain of HyFlyers GC, announced he will skip the first two events of the 2026 LIV Golf season due to a family health issue. The 55-year-old golfer shared the news on social media, expressing his intent to rejoin his team soon. Ollie Schneiderjans will replace him for the opening event in Riyadh.
