Masters Tournament, Round 3 Update: Mickelson Hits Back-To-Back Eagles To Approach Westwood

Late in Round 3 of the 2010 Masters, Phil Mickelson is going house. Mickelson has shot back-to-back eagles in the 13th and 14th holes, and is now only one stroke back of tournament leader Lee Westwood.

The PGA Tour’s Twitter feed points out just how briskly Mickelson has eaten into Westwood’s lead:

Mickelson, at -11, becomes the second player of the week to reach double digits under par. 10 minutes ago, he was 5 shots behind Westwood.

His hot streak might not be over. Our resident golf expert, Ryan Ballengee, just tweeted:

Mickelson, where in the world did that come from? Could go back to back to back with eagles.

Mr. Ballengee, by the way, is on-location in Augusta. Check out his blog, Waggle Room, for all things Masters.
