Phil Mickelson is gunning to be the oldest golfer to win a major as he holds a slim lead over Brooks Koepka headed into the final round of the PGA Championship.
This is the golfer's first 54-hole lead in a major since the 2013 U.S. Open, which is when he finished runner-up in the event. Julius Boros is the reigning oldest golfer to win a major at 48 years, four months, 18 days during the 1968 PGA Championship. Mickelson is less than four weeks away from turning 51, and is currently sitting at 7-under.
After finishing the second round on Friday tied for the lead with Louis Oosthuizen, Mickelson birdied five of his first 10 holes on Saturday and extended the lead to as many as five strokes.
