VIDEO: Mickelson's bunker hole-out, handshake with Z. Johnson at Presidents Cup

Phil Mickelson looked like the Phil Mickelson of old Thursday at the Presidents Cup.

Not only did Mickelson and U.S. teammate Zach Johnson take down Jason Day and Steven Bowditch, 4 and 3, in the opening foursomes session to help the U.S. open up a 4-1 lead, but Lefty also showed off his crazy-good short game by holing this bunker shot for birdie at the par-3 13th:

Of course, Mickelson holing the shot isn't the only notable thing about this video. Notice the handshake celebration with Johnson. It isn't quite as wild as Mickelson's high-fives and chest-bumps with Keegan Bradley at the 2012 Ryder Cup, or as cute as Tiger Woods and Matt Kuchar's handshake at the 2013 Presidents Cup.
