PHIL'S COMEBACK WAS UPENDED BY VAUGHN'S COMEBACK.
That would be Vaughn Taylor, a former PGA Tour winner and U.S. Ryder Cup team member whose struggling game in recent years has taken him to far flung destinations and dropped him to 447th in the Official World Golf Ranking.
The AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am was Phil Mickelson's tournament. Phil hadn't won since the 2013 Open Championship and held the 54-hole lead at Pebble Beach, where he has racked up four victories. That five-foot birdie putt on the 18th green to force a playoff was money. Lefty hadn't missed one of those all week.
