Sounding confident and assured while repeating the phrase "nothing wrong” three times in a four-minute press gathering near the scorecard signing area at Muirfield Village, Mickelson reiterated the stance from his 2 a.m. issued statement that he has been cooperative with the FBI, and intends to continue to be cooperate.
“I have done absolutely nothing wrong,” Mickelson said. “And that's why I've been fully cooperating with the FBI agents, and I'm happy to do so in the future, too, until this gets resolved. But for right now -- and hopefully it will be soon -- but for right now I can't really talk much about it.”
“You should know; you wrote the article,” Mickelson said, before the Wall Street Journal reporter corrected him to note that he did not write the article. Mickelson was aware of reporter Scott Calvert’s affiliation because the scribe had attempted to question Mickelson prior to his third-round 72.
“I think that as a player you have to be able to block out whatever is going on off the golf course and be able to focus on the golf course,” he said. “And it's not going to change the way I carry myself. Honestly, I've done nothing wrong. I'm not going to walk around any other way.”
