Former Pat Perez Ashley said she and Perez were staying at a villa rented by Mickelson near Liberty National Golf Club in Jersey City, where Mickelson is a member, during the 2015 Barclays at Plainfield Country Club when things quickly escalated.

In an interview with Skratch, Ashley alleged that when she and Mickelson were alone for a while in the room after Pat went to the bathroom, Mickelson showed him a picture of himself naked with an erection and stretching his bicep.

“Phil says to me, ‘I’m going to leave my bedroom door open tonight. When Pat goes to bed I want him to see me,'” Ashley said.

PHIL MICKELSON GETTING ADVICE TO MAKE A CHANCE TO TALK ‘FALSE HUMBS’ THAT COULD GET HIM OUT OF THE GOLF CLUB

Ashley said she didn’t mention the incident to her then-husband until after the tournament, and Mickelson later apologized.

Skratch noted that Perez discussed his “hatred” for Mickelson on a podcast about four years ago.

“Phil crossed a line with me which is unforgivable and unforgivable. He knows he messed up. He apologized for his actions, but I can’t forgive him for it,” said Perez.

Ashley said she now feels she is being “groomed” by Mickelson since they first met in 2014.

Skratch also interviewed some of his sources who alleged Mickelson’s unfaithfulness during membership terminations at other golf clubs.

Fox News Digital reached out to Mickelson and Perez for comment but did not immediately respond. A spokesperson for Mickelson provided Skratch with the following statement:

“Some of the allegations circulating about Mr. Mickelson are false, while others reflect mistakes he has already admitted, publicly or privately. Stacking controversial claims next to his own does not make them credible. Rather, it contributes to a false and misleading narrative.

“No person, no article, and no book can tell an accurate, complete, or personal story of the life of Mr. Mickelson and his family. His story, struggle, and recovery is his and the people who have shared it around him.

“Giving back is not a straight line. Throughout their 35-year relationship, his wife, Amy Mickelson, has supported Mr. Mickelson and their family with extraordinary kindness, unwavering love, and the belief that people are measured not just by their failures, but by what they do to fix them.”

“Mr. Mickelson’s most important thing is to be a husband, a father, and a good man for his family. Right now, that means giving his full attention to the private family health issue. He understands that some parts of his life are in the public domain, but his family’s private affairs are not.”

Perez told Skratch that he “wasn’t talking about Phil.”

Both Perez and Mickelson currently play for LIV Golf, but Mickelson has only played one tournament this year due to family issues. He also missed all three majors.
