Way to go, Phil, on winning the Northern Trust Open. Good luck for the rest of the season. Hope you win the FedExCup this year. Jessica

Congratulations Phil! You continue to show how talented you are with each of your incredible victories. I was very touched by your generosity during the FBR Open with your Super Bowl tickets, and I believe that good things happen to good people. Good luck the rest of the year, and I know that 2008 will be a special year for you! Kevin

I had no doubt you would do it ... a great show. You are so entertaining. Still love you and can't wait for the Match Play this week. All the best. Carol

Congrats, Phil! I think karma pitched in and paid you back for the donating of the Super Bowl tickets last weekend and the ball to the little one this weekend! It's always a thrill to watch you play, and looking forward to seeing you back on the East Coast! Jen

Phil, yet another great performance. Keep the confidence up and the good play. You are my favorite golfer. Enjoy the win and get a couple majors this year! Jared

Phil, congratulations from this 74-year old Canadian PGA member. Your smile is terrific. What a treat to watch you play. I love your swing, your demeanor and the gusto with which you play. Adios. Frank

Congratulations on your victory at the Northern Trust Open. I pull for you harder than any player on TOUR at each event you play in. You are a great family man, and we need more like you in every sport. I can't say enough about your interaction with the fans. You are a true inspiration to the game, and thank you for setting the type of example you do. Dennis

Congratulations on your win today! I know all the wins are special, but this one must have brought extra satisfaction because it completed a group of wins at all the tournaments in your home area. Best wishes headed towards Augusta. Mike

Phil, that a baby!!! Game looked in control all week and has looked really good so far this year. Tell "Bones" congrats as well. Keep it up, Lefty!! Jim

Mr. Mickelson, sir, congratulations on your victory, but mostly thank you for being a classy guy who cares about family and fans. Best wishes for every happiness. Carl

Great job today, Phil. As a fellow lefty with just 1% of your talent but 100% a fan, it was great to see you pull off the win today. Here's to a great year and adding another Masters and to get that US Open that you deserve. Justin

I don't know whether it is your wedge play or your gentlemanly behavior towards competitors or the smiles with fans; you are great to watch every week. Congratulations. Rod

Phil, I have been following you and cheering for you for many years now and just wanted to let you know what a blessing you are to the TOUR and to the game. You compete (and win) with such humility and grace, and it's awesome to see you, someone who cares so much about integrity and the fans, do so well. May God continue to bless you and your family. Thomas

Great job on a tough course and tough field. Thanks for appreciating the fans! Class all the way!!! Joan

Congratulations on your victory. But more than that is the way you react to the crowd. Giving that young child your golf ball was special. Don't ever change that part of your game. Have a great year. Alex

Congratulations on a fantastic win! No. 33 WOW. Continue to work hard on your game and the wins will continue too. Great luck in the majors this year! GO PHIL!!!! Gail

Congratulations, Phil! Your joy in the game and your desire to "give back" is great. I love it when you give golf balls to kids! I will continue to pull for you. God loves you a lot. Fulton

Phil, I always enjoy watching you play regardless of the outcome. You show true sportsmanship by your interaction with your fans and fellow pros. Gary

Congratulations on a great win at a great golf course. You are indeed a gentleman on and off the golf course. Hope I get a chance to see you at Torrey Pines. Tony
