Phil Mickelson Reveals Reason Behind Split With Longtime Caddie Jim 'Bones' Mackay

By Anthony Blake

As soon as Phil Mickelson and longtime caddie JimBonesMackay announced they were parting ways, speculation began as to the reason behind the ending of this 25-year partnership.

Well, Mickelson recently sat down to discuss what was behind this decision on the Dan Patrick Show.

The standby answer of “needing a change” is an easy go-to response, but in golf, that’s actually a very valid reason to make a switch of any kind – from a new putter to a caddie.

In a sport where trust and confidence play such a large role in determining how things play out, maybe this is the spark both of these guys need to start winning tournaments again in a new environment.
