A couple of years ago Phil Mickelson clearly changed his approach to course management and it won him three Majors. It appeared that Phil had taken Johnny Miller’s advice and “learned the value of a par.” Then Phil reverted to his old style of play (always aggressive, often dumb) but since he would not admit that he had changed anything he appeared doomed to many more close finishes as at Winged Foot. Phil did not really lose the 2006 U.S. Open on the 72nd hole. Had he been playing smart on the previous 71 holes he would have been leading by several strokes going into the 72nd. Now Phil has turned to Butch Hamon and the payoff has been almost immediate. Frankly the Colonel does not believe that Butch has limited his advice to getting more control off the tee with a shorter backswing as important as that is. Butch has Phil playing smarter and Cololnel Bogey believes that if Phil does not continue to play smart Butch will abandon Phil. Do you think that Phil is capable of playing smart over the long run??
