The 11th-hour wait for Tiger Woods didn't pan out, but fans should like the look of the field for the Greenbrier Classic just the same. The $6 million PGA Tour event, which begins its second go-round next week at the White Sulphur Springs resort, finally found out Friday who's joining this year's party with the release of the official entry list.
PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. - With each birdie, Phil Mickelson put some life into an overcast day at Pebble Beach and gave himself another chance to finally take something more than silver home from a U.S. Open. One day after he didn't make a single birdie, Mickelson made six of them Friday. It wasn't enough to catch Graeme McDowell of Northern Ireland, who set the early pace with a 3-under 68 to take a two-shot lead into the weekend, but all that mattered to Mickelson was getting back to even par.
SHEBOYGAN, Wis. - Phil Mickelson fell short of winning a second major this year or reaching No. 1 in the rankings. These days, nothing seems to faze Lefty's mood after he announced he has psoriatic arthritis and medication has eased the pain. I feel like nothing's wrong right now. I feel normal," Mickelson said Sunday after shooting a 67 to complete the PGA Championship at Whistling Straits at 6-under 282. "I don't want to say it's gone away, but all the symptoms have gone away and I feel great.
LOS ANGELES -- On the verge of blowing the biggest lead of his career, Phil Mickelson turned his fortunes around in the final hour at Riviera with back-to-back birdies that carried him to a one-shot victory Sunday in the Northern Trust Open. Mickelson went from a four-shot lead at the start of the final round to a two-shot deficit with three holes to play.
AUGUSTA, Ga. - On the far end of the course Wednesday, near the only palm tree at Augusta National, Lee Westwood rolled long putts across the fourth green as he practiced alone on a quiet afternoon before the Masters. Spotting two familiar faces in the crowd, he looked over with a grin and said, "Lost? Bar closed?
DUBLIN, Ohio - The spectator's guide to The Memorial Tournament says the 18th hole at Muirfield Village, one of the great fan- friendly venues in golf, can accommodate 20,000 spectators. There weren't that many there when Phil Mickelson played through Saturday, but there was still a nice horde of humanity to see the PGA Tour's most popular healthy player, here in the era of Tiger Woods' (temporary?) demise.
Things are going so well for Phil Mickelson in the BellSouth Classic at Duluth, Ga., that he embraced his first adversity in the tournament as yet another positive. Mickelson was on pace to challenge the lowest 54-hole total in PGA Tour history before he lost three strokes on his last three holes Saturday, forcing him to settle for a 5-under 67 and an eight- stroke lead at 21-under 195.
FARMINGDALE, N.Y. -- There was no smile, just a look of resignation as Phil Mickelson trudged wearily up the muddy slope off the 18th green. He was finally finished in a U.S. Open that seemed like it would never end, and the shouts of support coming from the bleachers were never going to mask the realization that another chance had slipped away. Mickelson had somehow found yet another way to lose the one tournament he wants so desperately to win. He would leave without the trophy his ailing wife wanted him to bring home.
AUGUSTA, Ga. - The large figure in the dazzling turquoise golf shirt was cutting his way through the Par 3 crowd Wednesday afternoon when a roadblock built of stretched yellow rope obstructed a path to the first tee. Phil Mickelson, barely breaking stride, fashioned a nifty scissors jump over the rope, earning himself a smattering of applause from the gathering crowd that had barely realized the celebrity just in their midst but was impressed with his athletic maneuver. Within minutes, Mickelson was teeing off on the fun portion of The Masters' early week schedule, kick-starting the Par 3 Contest with a first-group fan's dream team of himself, Fred Couples and Padraig Harrington.
WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS - It was hard to tell if the question about Phil Mickelson was in jest, or was serious. In this instance, it really didnt matter. From across the 11th fairway at The Old White TPC, where Mickelsons ball was nowhere to be found: Is he going to the bathroom? He wasnt, but he might as well have a complex of portable facilities stood not far from Mickelsons ball, which was amid the trees in a patch of native tall grass. It was a typical Lefty moment in his debut at The Greenbrier Classic. On this particular shot on his second hole of the day (his group began at No. 10), he hacked out to about 30 yards short of the green. He nearly holed the pitch shot, and then saved par from 2 feet. That delighted a following that grew rapidly from the 100 that watched him tee off wi...
