The Golf Blog: Phil Mickelson shoots 66 to make final pairing with leader Peter Hanson at Masters
The Golf Blog says: Saturday was moving day. And moving it was. Phil Mickelson shot a scintillating 30 on the back nine–a huge eagle putt on 13 and incredible flop shot on 15 to make birdie–to shoot a 66, finishing at -8. Swede Peter Hanson did one better, shooting a 65 and finishing -9. The two played together on Thursday and Friday, and will likely play each other again on Sunday. Louis Oosthuizen was 8-under heading up the 18th. If he birdies, he will slip into the final pairing and push out Phil.
Meanwhile, Rory McIlroy and Sergio Garcia, playing together, both imploded. Rory was 4-over and Sergio 3-over for the day, heading up the 18th. Fred Couples had a rough day too and was at 2-under (3 over for the day). Matt Kuchar and Bubba Watson, -5. Paddy Harrington had a great round and finished -4.
