CARLSBAD, Calif., May 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Phil Mickelson delivered a record-breaking performance for the ages at Kiawah Island and claimed his sixth major win on Sunday at the PGA Championship. Mickelson relied on Callaway Golf (NYSE: ELY) equipment and an Odyssey Putter throughout the week while becoming the oldest major champion ever at age 50.

With the combination of his new Callaway Epic Speed Driver, Callaway Irons, and a Callaway Chrome Soft X Triple Track Golf Ball, Mickelson led the elite field in Strokes Gained: Tee To Green. He drove the ball exceptionally well throughout the championship and hit a 366 yard bomb at the 16^th hole on Sunday when he needed it most.

His winning driver is engineered with Callaway's A.I. designed Jailbreak Speed Frame. By applying Artificial Intelligence, this structure improves stability in the horizontal and torsional direction for increased ball speeds across the face.
