Would LOVE to see Mickelson pull it off (he would be the oldest player to win it) but unfortunately, it seems like he falls off after fast starts in recent majors. Hope he can stay strong this time.
Maybe today was Phil’s bad round .... you usually have one in a four round tournament. He escaped with a 73 and is still very much in contention. And he certainly knows the course as well as anyone. But... at 48 it’s tough. I’m a casual player. It is so hard to maintain concentration on every shot through eighteen holes. Imagine that over seventy two holes and add that the competition is ratcheted up to five levels above intense. It has to be exhausting. He won at Pebble Beach. Maybe he can do it here too.
