Phil Mickelson followed up his insanely good Round One at the Desert Classic with a pretty solid Round Two on Friday.
Lefty shot a 68 on Friday. Combine that with the crazy 60 from Thursday and, well, dude is having quite run.

This is all after Mickelson warned that he would be “rusty”
I’m excited to start another year on tour at the Desert Classic! Although – I’m a bit rusty, I’m also fresh and ready to get started. ?

It’s safe to say he has shaken off the rust that clearly was never there in the first place.
Divot right at it.

Round Three will be on Saturday and will be followed by a Bad Company concert. What a weekend in the desert.
