Mickelson is going to look back and wonder how the hell he lost this tourney. Played so well but sometimes someone else is just off the hook.

Phil's gotta be like, "Are you effin' kidding me? Dropping 50 footers right in my grill, -8 for the day." Truly a tremendous performance.

Mickelson said his final round at Muirfield was the round of his career. Stenson is having to shoot the round of his career to win his first major. He's really holding it together. he can still do a Westwood, but I'd like to see him hold on.

He is possibly going to shoot a bogey free 65 on Sunday and lose.

Stenson is in the turds, but he's there in 2, he can still birdie this with a solid chip. My dream is he pars and Phil gets the eagle and they tie it up. :)

Phil very likely going to pick up one shot on this hole here. Could be 2, but would take a remarkable shot from Stenson not to drop one.

Stenson's third here may decide the tournament. He puts it within 10 I bet he won't miss the put with the way he has been playing.

Those little chips from shit lies around the green will never cease to amaze me. The average 10 handicap is lucky to put that within 20 feet.

Oh man was that close. I can't imagine being a pro golfer and having nightmares about quarter inches.

This feels like many of the important President's Cup matches in the last several cycles. No matter what the Americans do, the Europeans just have ice in their veins and give no quarter.

So that one and the half inch on 18 on Thursday and he's tied. Like one total ball rotation maybe. Instead he's 2 back. She's a cruel mistress....

Jesus, I'm so fucking superstitious, I wouldn't change my shirt, shoes, glove or anything else at this point if I was Stenson.
