PHIL MICKELSON IS FEELING GOOD about his golf game after tying for third at the Safeway Open, his best finish of the year.
"The game has just come back and my focus is much better," said Mickelson, who will head to China in two weeks for the HSBC Champions.
Meanwhile, Brendan Steele successfully defended his title with a 15-under performance. The 34-year-old tour pro has three PGA Tour victories, two Safeway Opens and a Valero Texas Open.
Wildfires forced an evacuation of the Silverado Resort and Spa not long after the tournament ended. CNN tweeted a photo of grandstands on the North Course burning to the ground.
