Rejuvenated Mickelson making move on Saturday

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. -- On Friday, Phil Mickelson was apologizing for playing an indifferent round of golf in the heart of the Players Championship telecast.

On Saturday, he should apologize for saving his most torrid stretch for when his round isn't even being televised.

Nine shots off the lead to start the day, Mickelson ripped off five birdies on his front nine to get to eight under, four shots behind leader Lee Westwood.
