It feels like it’s been forever since Phil Mickelson was laying waste to a course on the PGA Tour, but that’s exactly what’s happening at the Deutsche Bank Championship.
Three birdies in five holes has Lefty tied a shot up on Arron Oberholser with last week’s winner Steve Stricker just two shots behind. And three shots off the pace is Tiger Woods. Yes, playing in the same group, Mickelson and Tiger may battle it all the way down to the end at TPC Boston.
Could a magic finish be the impetus for making the FedEx Cup a grand success? Of course not. But make no mistake about it, watching Phil and Tiger fight it out in the final round is nirvana for golf fans and truly must-see TV.
Unless, of course, you live in an area where the Jerry Lewis Telethon bumps the PGA off the tube.
