Good to see Phil Mickelson end his first round at the AT&T National Pro-Am on an up-tick. The eagle at Poppy Hills brought him to -7 and into a 3 way tie. Poppy Hills is arguably the easiest of the 3 courses as it’s farthest from the ocean and protected from the wind by lots of trees. Although when you compare the 3 course ratings – Pebble Beach, Spyglass Hill, and Poppy Hills, PB and PH are rated at 144 and SH is 147. Sure must be nice to score well on such tough courses.
Speaking of Lefty, last week at the FBR, they said he’d spent the winter getting into shape? Also heard some comments yesterday about the same thing – I guess my Hi Def is a lot different than their Hi Def.
Oh well.
