The left handed Mickelson is currently competing in the World Golf Championships: Cadillac Championships in Doral, Miami in the United States of America, where Rory McIlroy, Luke Donald and Lee Westwood, the top three players in the world have been grouped together for the first two rounds of the Championships.

Kahn has been quite a renowned figure when it comes to making of film shoots and has worked with some of the great celebrities of the time. The current shoot for Phil Mickelson is planned and scheduled to be held at the Las Vegas strip.
Kahn has all the imagination in his mind and wants to execute it in the proper manner. He wants to bring about a new and novel approach to the photo shoot and will try to portray a new dimension to the golfing world, one of which that has never been explored before. He is trying his level best to get the Mirage volcano at Las Vegas to be the background of the shoot with Phil Mickelson striking a 100 yard shot in the forefront.
