After lacking that slice eventually 7 days utes Greenbrier Classic, Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson attended their individual means Mickelson to help blow his game straight into pattern In Scotland and also Woods unsurprisingly again that will this process range in Florida.

You might have so many different weather conditions. You just never know, he / she said. That's one of several different stuff about the British Open in addition to why it really is my favourite major championship. It's the sole competition in addition the actual sandbelt programs in Australia that him and i might in fact use the actual yard as somebody in addition to bounce your tennis ball into the greens.

Mickelson, whom ended up being struggling with his complete activity whenever this individual left the actual Greenbrier, scuffled to an opening-round 1-over 73 with the Scottish Open, although successive ratings of 64 and 65 put him in a very tie regarding fifth plus while in the blend heading towards Sunday.
