Mickelson holds off Jimenez for 3rd PGA Tour Champions win

The Hindu  

Phil Mickelson won for the third time in four career starts on the PGA Tour Champions, closing with a 4-under 68 for a two-shot victory in the Constellation Furyk and Friends. Miguel Angel Jimenez battled with Mickelson throughout the day at breezy Timuquana Country Club and pulled even with birdies on the par-5 13th — where Mickelson three-putted for par — and the par-3 14th. “I was appreciative that I was able to birdie two coming in and come out on top, but it was a tough day.” Jimenez also shot a 68, nearly holing a long birdie putt on the par-4 18th that would have forced Mickelson to make his 10-foot birdie for the win. “So I like how you don't have to be perfect and I can get away with a shot or two here or there.” Mickelson said he plans to play at least two more tournaments on the 50-and-over tour this fall — in Richmond, where he's the defending champion, and at the Charles Schwab Cup Championship in Phoenix.
