U.S. OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP


June 15, 2013


Phil Mickelson


ARDMORE, PENNSYLVANIA

Q.  How would you best describe the way it was out there for you today?
PHIL MICKELSON:  It was a day that I thought you could get‑‑ you could get under.  And the fact that I was 2‑over early, I had to be really patient not to force the issue and fight for a lot of pars out there.  And take advantage of a few birdie opportunities.
I thought that I played better again than the score dictated, but this is a really fun challenge.  It is a hard challenge, but it is a lot of fun.  Every shot requires such great focus because the penalty can come up and bite you so quickly here.  It's just a very penalizing golf course.  But there are birdie holes out here.

Q.  You have the lead.  You're the only man under par.  18 holes to go to win a U.S. Open.  What do you think it's going to be like for you tomorrow with Hunter in the final group?
PHIL MICKELSON:  A lot of fun.  Let's go.  I can't wait to get back out playing.  I feel really good ball striking, I feel good on the greens, and I think that it's going take an under par round tomorrow.
