    A new book by Billy Walters claims that golfing legend Phil Mickelson placed over $1 billion in bets over three decades on football, baseball, and basketball, losing over $100 million. Walters also claims that Mickelson attempted to bet $400,000 on the 2012 Ryder Cup, which he was participating in.
