Impossible Iron Shot=Phil Mickelson’s Wheelhouse

I hope you caught the final round of the Colonial. It was was very entertaining with Tim Clark, Rod Pampling, and Phil Mickelson all tied for the lead on the final hole. Pampling and Clark both par, but Phil hit an amazing iron shot over trees to 9 ft from the flag and sank the putt to win. The announcers didn’t even think it was an option and that he would either chip out or pay a big slice. Phil is going to miss sometimes and it is those few times that he failed spectacularly that are remembered. Still, it is moments like these that make us all realize Phil still has it and is willing to take risks (necessary or not) to win.

This has to give him good feelings going into the U.S. Open next month. If you missed the coverage, here are some highlights:
