The 14-time Major victor was the butt of some Twitter banter before he headed out for last night's final round, sandwiched between names like Bernhard Langer, Fred Couples and Vijay Singh - three former champions with a combined age of 173. And not only does he attempt one of the toughest shots in golf, he executes it to perfection.
Woods, enjoying with two groups behind Mickelson and in his initial major as 2015, made a bogey around the par-four initial that left him 14 shots off the pace.
He attempted to play the ball from directly under a tree branch, and it didn't go so well.
After WhatsApp, Facebook to bring unsend feature to Messenger
Facebook confirmed the retractions, claiming it was done for the company's security, following the Sony email hack in 2014. WhatsApp offers users with the ability to delete messages for a limited amount of time after the message has been sent.
Still, there were also reminders of his brilliance. "I just made too many mistakes out there".
"It was better, but it's never easy being out here knowing what you're missing out on with that back nine here on Sunday at the Masters", Mickelson said. This remarkable second shot with a driver from the fairway of the par five 8th set up an eagle opportunity, and was quickly followed by an excellent birdie on the next hole, this time reaching the back of the green from the famed pinestraw. The lefty has always been known for his golfing prowess, and is one of the best iron players in the world.
"I've been very consistent this year, especially off the tee".

It's the only major Mickelson needs to complete his career Grand Slam.
"The hard thing for me is I continue to put a little bit too much pressure on myself in the majors right now because I know I don't have a ton of time to win them, especially U.S. Opens", he said. "But these next two US Opens, Shinnecock and Pebble Beach give me good opportunities".
