— PGA TOUR (@PGATOUR) October 9, 2015 Phil Mickelson makes up for rules gaffe by draining incredible shot from fairway bunker
After a stupid rules gaffe and bizarre penalty put his pairing in a major match play hole, Phil Mickelson decides to get some back with this wild hole out from a fairway bunker.


It’s always fun winning a hole in match play without ever having to pull the putter from your bag. Phil Mickelson has been at the center of this Friday four-ball session at the Presidents Cup, first for stupidly playing the wrong golf ball and incurring an extremely bizarre penalty that put his team in a 2-down deficit from just one hole.
The penalty mishap may have woken up the duo of Mickelson and Zach Johnson, who have charged back from that deficit and are now 1-up after this absurd Phil hole-out from a bunker deep down the fairway at the 12th. Mickelson has long been one of the best sand players in the world, and spinning this one back into the cup will go down as one of the great Presidents Cup shots ever.
The reaction is up there too:
