The position allows Mickelson, a five-time major champion, to
spend time talking to, playing golf with and coaching team
members while also calling potential recruits.
As an Arizona State alum and a program donor, Mickelson would be
otherwise prohibited from those tasks because of NCAA rules.
Lefty, a member of the World Golf Hall of Fame with 42 PGA Tour
victories in his career, captured NCAA individual titles for the
Sun Devils in 1989, 1990 and 1992.
Tim Mickelson has had an opening on his staff since September,
when Joe Prince left the school.
