Playing in a team with Tiger Woods, Mickelson had 3 birdies and an eagle over the 1st six holes to billow past the 3rd round leader Charlie Wi and turned to be the 9th golf player with forty career PGA wins. He defeated Tiger by eleven shots over the final round.
Mickelson, who also grabbed this title in 1992, 2005 and in 2007, told that he was inspired playing with Tiger. Tiger seems to bring out the best out in him and in last 4 – 5 years, he had some of his best golf playing moments with Woods.
Charlie Wi finished 2nd at fifteen under, along with Ricky Barnes another 2 shots back. Woods won his last PGA Tour in the year 2009. He finished the event in a tie for the fifteenth place at 8-under par after a final round seventy-five.
Tiger was so frustrated with his performance. He told that he had a chance and all he had to do was get off to a good, solid start and he didn’t do that. He thought that he could get it in the middle part of the round, but instead he went the other way.
The final round of the event marked the thirtieth time when Woods and Mickelson was paired together in a PGA Tour approved event and the tenth time these two golfer have played together on the last day. Woods said that he missed a ton of short putts. He did not hit it as bad as the score indicated, but he missed everything.
