Dr. the Honourable Ewart F. Brown; JP, MP, Premier of Bermuda today congratulated Phil Mickelson on winning his third Masters Tournament. With his three stroke victory over Lee Westwood, Mickelson has earned the honor of donning the coveted Green Jacket and secured an invitation to the 2010 PGA Grand Slam of Golf to be held in Bermuda.
Premier Brown said, "This was a fantastic Masters.....a golfer's dream finish. Phil Mickelson played a wonderful round and deserved to win his third Green Jacket. For Bermuda and the PGA Grand Slam, the outcome could be hugely positive considering Phil's immense popularity. In my meetings with the PGA here in Augusta, they were very upbeat about this year's Grand Slam and I am hopeful that we will negotiate an extension of our agreement."
The 2010 PGA Grand Slam of Golf will return to the Port Royal Golf Course in Southampton, Bermuda, Oct. 18-20, where Lucas Glover posted a five-stroke triumph over Angel Cabrera in last year's meeting of major champions.
