Phil Beats Ryder Cup Teammates in Closest to Pin With Righty Wedge
Phil Mickelson won a closest-to-the-pin contest on Wednesday.
But that's not all. The competition was in Gillette Stadium, home
of the New England Patriots, and Mickelson won with a right-handed
wedge. Remember, this is the guy known as "Lefty."
Mickelson and his seven Ryder Cup teammates put on Patriots jerseys
and hung out on the field on Wednesday, as he and the rest of the crew
bonded off the course as they prepare for the first round of the
Deutsche Bank Championship, just outside of Boston, on Friday. And, just
for fun, a hole was set up 78 yards away on the field, and players took
aim using captain Davis Love's wedge.
Mickelson stuck his shot four feet away from the hole.
Lefty talked about the shot on Thursday, and he made sure his Ryder Cup teammates remembered who won.
