Phil Mickelson perhaps is one of the greatest ever to play golf and one of his achievements came at an early time, as an amateur golfer. In 1991, Mickelson won his 1st PGA Tour event while being enrolled at the Arizona State University and this was the 1991 Northern Telecom Open, being one of only a few golfers to win on the PGA Tour as an amateur. On that day, he defeated pros Bob Tway and Tom Purtzer by 1 shot for a total of 16-under 272. He was only 20 years old at that time and it was one of the impressive records he holds up until this day.
