| Phil Mickelson in a green jacket. Even he had a hard time believing it.
The final leg in his odyssey to win a major championship came down to an 18-foot putt Sunday, the kind Mickelson had grown weary of watching others make as he stood to the side. This time, the last chance belonged to him, a birdie putt that kept him in suspense to the very end. It rolled toward the cup, swirled around the left edge and dropped in. There were not many changes in the top-20 of this week's Official World Golf Rankings, as very few official events remain on the 2004 schedule. Vijay Singh, who has been No. 1 since the Deutsche Bank Championship on Labor Day weekend, retained the top spot, while Tiger Woods, who moved to second last week, held that place for the second straight week. Mickelson leapt as high as he could and threw both arms in the air, kissed the ball that he plucked from the cup and tossed it into a delirious crowd that felt the same way. Finally! "It almost feels like make-believe," Mickelson said. "My first thought was, 'I did it! I finally did it!' I knew I could, but I finally did it." Those who doubted only had to look at his poise along a dramatic back nine at Augusta National as Ernie Els tried to pull away with an eagle, a birdie and a collection of clutch pars. Ernie Els, reigning U.S. Open winner Retief Goosen and Masters champion Phil Mickelson rounded out the top five for the second consecutive week. like Weir stayed in sixth place, while Davis Love III and Padraig Harrington switched spots from last week. The American jumped up to seventh, while the Irishman dropped to No. 8. Sergio Garcia and Stewart Cink completed the top-10. |
