Fan favourite Phil Mickelson made his 2010 PGA Tour debut today playing the Farmers' Insurance Open at Torrey Pines in La Jolla, California. Phil shot a respectable 2-under 70 on the South Course. Phil didn't hit an approach shot inside of 10 feet all day, and stated in a post round interview that "the greens are fast and bumpy, not because they're not in great shape. They're so soft that every step is leaving a bunch of impressions." He also said coming into the 2010 season that he feels ready to come out a shot lower scores then he ever has. That's a good sign from the world's number two.
Scott Piercy, playing the easier North Course is leading the field by one posting a 8-under 64. Scott will go the the harder South Course for his second round, so it will be interesting to see where he stands after day two.
Also Little John (John Daly) made his second start of 2010 with a sponsors exemption. John, who missed the cut at the Sony, played dismal in round one with score of plus 7, 79.
Another guy to watch this week is Big Break alum Matt Every who shot a 7-under 65. Matt is PGA Tour rookie this year after placing top 25 on the Nationwide's 2009 money list.
Stay posted to see how the boys do in round two.
Cheers,
