Mickelson is eligible for this list because, as the winner of the 2021 US PGA Championship, he was credited with a PGA European Tour victory, as are all winners of Majors.

When Richard Bland won the 2021 British Masters he became the oldest person to win his first PGA European Tour event, after 21 years and more than 475 tournaments on the Tour.
