SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) -- Phil Mickelson was a fraction of an inch away from shooting 59 in his 2013 Waste Management Phoenix Open victory. Playing partners Justin Thomas and Adam Hadwin are the latest members of the 59 club, and Thomas was plotting some good-natured ribbing at Lefty's expense.
''There will be some point where he will say something about how many majors he's won and this and that, and I will just ask him how many times he shot 59 in a competitive round,'' Thomas said Wednesday, the day before the start of play at rowdy TPC Scottsdale.
