The Golf Blog: Phil Mickelson hits 1,500 balls with wedge per week, 90% within 1 yard of target
The Golf Blog says: Phil Mickelson had his pre-tournament interview at the Farmers’ Open at Torrey Pines. Last year, he had his caddie Jim “Bones” Mackay tend the pin on 18 as Phil tried to hole out with his wedge from the fairway. He almost did.
When asked about that shot a year later, Phil said he wasn’t surprised he almost holed out because he practices hitting 1,500 balls with his wedge a week. Phil claimed that he hits 90% of the 1,500 balls–or 1,350 of the 1,500 balls–within 1 yard of his target. Wow!
