When asked if he expected such great play from DeChambeau, Mickelson said, “Yes… It’s a lot like Winged Foot, open fronts, hit it long, advance it on the green, and he’s been playing well.” However, it was still a surprise for most golf fans to see the golf star back in action after a long time off the leaderboard.

How has Phil Mickelson fared at the PGA Championship?

Despite praising his LIV Golf colleague for his epic round, Mickelson couldn’t reach his own expectations at the tournament. As per his statements, Lefty was very positive about his game in the beginning. “I came in here very optimistic,” he said. “The first two days, I’ve played terrible. I’ve driven it poorly. I’ve not felt good with the putter. I haven’t chipped great. My irons have been average.”

Ever since his T2 finish at the Masters, fans have been expecting him to put on a show each time he steps on the course. However, his recent LIV Golf performances have also been pretty disappointing to watch. But luckily, he played well enough to make the cut and play through the weekend.
