Phil Mickelson asks kid if he should lay up. Kid delivers Phil-esque response
Inside the ropes and out, it was an inauspicious summer for Phil Mickelson. But for the first time in months, his game showed signs of life at TPC Boston, delivering four consecutive rounds in the 60s to finish T-6 at the Dell Technologies Championship. It was his best showing of the season, at a favorable time, too, helping solidify his resume as a captain's pick for the upcoming Presidents Cup.
