SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS
Q. Phil, I was a little scared for you today, you walked into snake country a couple of times after some wayward drives?
PHIL MICKELSON: Yeah, my ball‑striking was a touch off today. I hit a few drives in some bad spots.
Yesterday I kept it in check and didn't really have too many big misses. I had a bunch of big misses today. I was able to shoot even par with it. I putted well and hit some good iron shots but I'll have to work on it tomorrow. My driving actually felt really good heading into here. I played Augusta the last few days before, and I was driving it great.
But I haven't hit it the way I feel I've been hitting it. Hopefully this weekend I'll get it back.
Q. I thought that you stayed mentally engaged throughout the round, too. You were mentally focused the entire way through, something you said you wanted to work on?
PHIL MICKELSON: I did do a good job of staying focused. I was disappointed on one hole where I made a double on 6. I tried to stay really sharp and just leave it a bogey. A lot of times when I got in trouble and I didn't hit great shots I was able to salvage them with good up‑and‑downs and maintain a pretty good focus on the greens, made some good saving putts.
So it was a good first two days and I'm looking forward to hopefully improving on it on the weekend.
