WGC HSBC CHAMPIONS


November 2, 2012


Phil Mickelson


SHENZHEN, CHINA

Q.  Is that best described as an up‑and‑down round?
PHIL MICKELSON:  I played a very good front nine, and a little sloppy on the back, but it's okay.  I'm in position where a good round tomorrow will give me a good chance on Sunday.
It's disappointing finishing with double, but I played pretty well for the most part throughout the first 12, 13 holes.  I just played a little sloppy coming in.

Q.  31 out with two eagles, you must have been thinking this could have been really, really low?
PHIL MICKELSON:  Yeah, it's a course, you hit some good shots, you can make some birdies, and the par 5s were certainly doable.  I let two birdies slide on the back on the par 5s.  I didn't capitalise there.  Gave a few back.
But I played pretty well today with the exception of a few loose swings here and there coming in.

Q.  So you're clearly happy with your game and feel you have every chance going into the weekend?
PHIL MICKELSON:  Yeah, I do feel pretty good about my game.  I feel like I've been hitting some good shots.
I'll have to come out tomorrow and play aggressive.  I'll have to get a hot round.  Oosthuizen is playing quite good and there's a number of guys right there.  It's out there.

Q.  Do you feel there's a low score to be made?
PHIL MICKELSON:  There really is.  I think there's something in the low 60s that should be out there and I'll have two good chances to try and get it.
