GULLANE, Scotland (Reuters) - Phil Mickelson made a quick romantic trip to Muirfield this weekend, the scene of his 2013 British Open triumph, as he looked for inspiration for this year's showpiece at St. Andrews starting on Thursday.
The American has been competing in the Scottish Open at Gullane Golf Club but found time after Saturday’s third round to travel the short distance to Muirfield and spend 90 minutes at the club.
"I enjoyed my time here at Gullane, and given how close it was to Muirfield, it was great to go over and spend time reminiscing," Mickelson told reporters.
