DOUBLE SWERVE! Incredibly, he managed to shoot from behind the tree and land five feet from the hole, putting him in position to convert his third 13th-hole eagle of the 2010 Masters.

TRIPLE SWERVE! He missed the putt and had to settle for birdie. Despite the setback, Mickelson still leads by two strokes with five holes left to play.
