Phil Mickelson could be in hot waters as his gambling exploits are about to be exposed in a new book set to be released this month and folks cannot wait for the big expose. This was made known by Biographer Alan Shipnuck while tweeting about the upcoming book via Twitter;
“I have read Billy Walters’s autobiography GAMBLER. Can’t say anything specific (yet!) since I had to sign an NDA but he’s quite a character and it’s a wild read. Walters devotes 2 chapters to his ex-friend Mickelson. He has all the receipts on Phil’s sports betting and HOLY S–T!”
This book would be interesting to read and I know y’all can’t wait for the book’s release.
Phil Mickelson could see some details he would prefer to remain largely unknown exposed in a new book that’s set to drop later this month.
Biographer Alan Shipnuck has referenced businessman and sports punter Billy Walters’ biography in which he’s made note of some embarrassing exploits Mickelson is responsible for.
Shipnuck took to Twitter to reveal that the book has two chapters devoted to Mickelson, a former friend, which contain some damning receipts.
I have read Billy Walters’s autobiography GAMBLER. Can’t say anything specific (yet!) since I had to sign an NDA but he’s quite a character and it’s a wild read. Walters devotes 2 chapters to his ex-friend Mickelson. He has all the receipts on Phil’s sports betting and HOLY SHIT!

Shipnuck has written about Mickelson’s gambling habits himself in a book on the golfing icon that was released last year. In it, he disclosed particulars regarding the Security Exchange Commission accusing Mickelson of using information from Walters to rake in close to seven figures on the stock market in 2016. Mickelson subsequently used the returns to pay gambling debts owed to Walters.
“At the time, the extent of Mickelson’s debts were unknown, but reporting in the biography — attributed to a source with access to the SEC’s documents — revealed that in one four-year stretch, from 2010-14, Mickelson’s losses totaled more than $40 million, or roughly the equivalent of his estimated annual income during that period,” Golf.com reported.
The bio, titled “Gambler: Secrets From A Life At Risk,” launches in two weeks.
People use dubious means to rake in millions of dollars and even though not all of them get caught all the time but since Karma is a b*tch, they get busted in the end and that seems like the case of Phil Mickelson. In two weeks, the world gets to know Phil’s gambling exploits via the book titled, “Gambler: Secrets From A Life At Risk”.
