Six-time major winner Phil Mickelson has issued a firm denial against allegations of misconduct detailed in a recent investigation by Skratch. His representatives dismissed the report as an anonymously sourced attack. The investigation claims Mickelson faced bans from three California golf clubs following inappropriate behavior toward women, though his camp insists he left those clubs by choice.

One specific accusation involves Ashley Perez, the former wife of PGA Tour player Pat Perez. She alleges Mickelson propositioned her and shared an explicit photograph in 2015. Mickelson's team told the New York Post that while he apologized for a misunderstanding regarding the photo, he does not admit to the broader allegations made by Skratch.

These claims follow a previous incident where Mickelson reportedly left a prestigious California club after allegations of inappropriate contact with a female employee. His legal team maintains that no club has ever revoked his membership or expelled him. Mickelson continues to face scrutiny regarding his personal conduct outside of professional competition.
