Phil Mickelson wins Masters:

The Masters always proves something about the greatest
golfers in the world. This year was no exception. Phil Mickelson won this
third green jacket in the final pairing on Sunday. Many thought Phil's mind
was elsewhere during tournaments, mostly focused on his mother and wife both
battling breast cancer. He persevered and showed that he could close major
championships. His performance on the 15th hole was legendary and one for
the ages.
Mickelson presents a great story, doing everything right handed, except
learning golf left handed to mirror his father. That's great discipline and
it provides a glimpse of how he got to be one of the world's best golfers.
Westwood might break through at one of the majors this year. He's playing
really well and expect that to continue as it gets nearer to the U.S. Open.
The U.S. Open this year is being played at Pebble Beach. Woods dominated at
Pebble Beach in 2000, with the highest margin of victory, 15 shots as the
only player under pair for the event.
Lee Westwood comes up short after finishing third in the previous two major
championships last season, he comes up second at the Masters. Westwood
played brilliantly for three days, eventually losing by three strokes. Tiger
Woods and other contenders faded at the end of the day, finishing tied for
fourth with K.J. Choi. Woods expressed his displeasure with his game in his
press conference afterwards. Woods had a quality tournament. He's just used
to winning. To expect him to win an event after so many months off was
unrealistic because golf's such a rhythm event that players need repetition
to perform at the highest level.
He played well at times, but the rust did show. Mickelson earned this win.
He's played well in recent months. It could set up a great year for the fan
favorite. He's more personable that Tiger and he seems like the people's
champion. It's good to see Mickelson playing well. It's every golfer's hope
that at one major, Tiger and Mickelson are in the final pairing on Sunday.
Hopefully this will be one of a number of great golfing events in 2010.
Hopefully we'll get to see some great golf in June at Pebble Beach as the
U.S. Open ends on Father's Day.
