Mickelson hits 15 greens, fails to make a birdie in Rd. 2

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. – Phil Mickelson put up a rare doughnut during the second round of the Honda Classic.

Mickelson failed to record a single birdie en route to a 4-over 74 at PGA National, snapping a run of 71 straight competitive rounds with at least once circle on the scorecard that dated back to last year’s WGC-Cadillac Championship.

The round put at least a temporary stop to Mickelson’s early-season momentum. At 3-over 143 he made the cut on the number and now trails Rickie Fowler by 11 shots.
