AT&T National

Phil Mickelson Joins Stellar Field at the AT&T National at Congressional Country Club 

BETHESDA, MD - Filling one of the final spots in the exclusive, 120-player field, world No. 2 Phil Mickelson has committed to play in the AT&T National at Congressional Country Club.

Mickelson's inclusion raises the star-power of the inaugural AT&T National (July 3-8) to another level. The tournament boasts the top four players in the world (No. 1 Tiger Woods, No. 3 Jim Furyk and No. 4 Adam Scott) and the top three players on this year's PGA TOUR money list and FedExCup points standings. Tournament host Woods leads both of those categories, followed by Mickelson and Vijay Singh, respectively, on both accounts.

"We're very excited to welcome Phil to the AT&T National," said Greg McLaughlin, president of the Tiger Woods Foundation. "We have what's shaping up to be an excellent field with Tiger, Vijay and now Phil, and we're looking forward to a week of spectacular golf."

Renowned for his smooth putter and crafty short game, Mickelson is one four players to win multiple events on the 2007 PGA TOUR, having captured titles at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am in February and THE PLAYERS Championship in May. Mickelson's first win of 2007 ignited a streak in which he had finished among the top three in five of eight consecutive stroke-play events. Mickelson recorded a runner-up finish at the Nissan Open and placed third twice.

Mickelson's 31 career PGA TOUR victories are tied for second (with Singh) among active PGA TOUR players. A member of the last six U.S. Ryder Cup and Presidents' Cup teams, Mickelson has captured his major championships in each of the past three years (2004 and 2006 Masters and 2005 PGA Championship). Mickelson has compiled $4,120,588 and 15,818 FedExCup points in 2007.

The $6 million AT&T National features a winner's check of $1.08 million, and will be televised by Golf Channel during the four rounds, with CBS televising the bulk of the final two rounds on the weekend. The AT&T National features almost a week's worth of festivities. Congressional will open to the public on Tuesday, July 3 with professional practice rounds, followed by the Earl Woods Memorial Pro-Am on Wednesday, July 4 and four rounds of tournament play from July 5-8.

All tickets can be ordered by calling 1-800-594-TIXX or visiting the tournament website at www.attnational.org. Daily gallery passes are grounds-only passes and cost $20 Tuesday-Friday and $25 for the tournament's closing rounds on Saturday and Sunday. Weekly gallery badges ($65) are good-all-week grounds passes and are the best bet for those who want to be regulars at the inaugural AT&T National. Daily Youth Tickets (for kids 13-17) can be purchased for $10 at the gate. General admission parking is free.

The AT&T National will benefit the Tiger Woods Foundation and pay tribute to the men and women in the U.S. Armed Forces. In addition to serving as the host organization, the Tiger Woods Foundation also plans to expand its programs to the East Coast by bringing the Tiger Woods Learning Center to Washington, D.C.
