AT & T Pebble Beach National (Day Four)
Mickelson ended up second but should have won here. A level par round saw him miss out on a Playoff by a shot. He needed two birdies on the final two holes to tie Vaughn Taylor's clubhouse score. He duly hit a birdie two on the 17th with an 18 foot putt and was ideally placed to get a birdie four on the 18th when his eight foot putt rimmed out, leaving him second.
Our Guys:
Jimmy Walker 18/1 -9 Tied 11th
Phil Mickelson 22/1 -16 Second
Aaron Baddeley 200/1 -1 Tied 51st
Shame we couldn't get the win here but that gives us two wins and four second places over the last four weeks and eight tournaments:
Thomas Pieters 55/1 2nd
Brandt Snedeker 18/1 1st
Branden Grace 8/1 1st
Rafa Cabrera Bello 40/1 2nd
Rafa Cabrera Bello 35/1 2nd
Phil Mickelson 22/1 2nd
If we go back a further two weeks, we also got Christiaan Bezuidenhuit for 2nd at 250/1 and places for Jamie Lovemark at 100/1, Joost Luiten at 70/1 & JB Holmes at 28/1 so on a pretty profitable 2016 so far.

The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
