KIAWAH ISLAND, S.C. -- Phil Mickelson is serious about getting on top of his focus issues. After jumping out front at the PGA Championship on Friday, he agreed to take just three questions from reporters waiting to grill him about his standing atop the leaderboard and his quest for a sixth major championship.
An extra query slipped through, one which Mickelson happily answered before going on his way to enjoy the afternoon and soak in the glory of his unlikely spot heading into the weekend at Kiawah Island's Ocean Course.
Fewer mind-probing questions, more concentration on the task at hand.
