Phil Mickelson plans to return to competition on the PGA TOUR next week, sources close to the world’s No. 2 golfer have confirmed.
His return may be brief as his wife Amy weighs treatment options after being diagnosed with breast cancer two weeks ago. But Mickelson has decided to play in next week’s St. Jude Classic in Memphis, Tenn., as well as the U.S. Open the following week.
Mickelson, who was the defending champion at last week’s Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial, had suspended his schedule indefinitely after learning of his wife’s diagnosis.

But he said in a statement on his Web site last week that doctors think the cancer was caught early, and more tests are scheduled. Originally, Mickelson had said that surgery was scheduled within two weeks but that has now been delayed.

How his wife’s treatment progresses will certainly dictate how much Mickelson plays this summer — and whether he will be in the field at Turnberry for the British Open, the season’s third major championship, in July.
