"This is such an accomplishment for me," Mickelson said, according to CBS News. "To play what is arguably the best round of my career, to putt the way I putted, to shoot the round of my life, it just feels amazing to win the claret jug."

Mickelson is now ranked No. 2 in the world behind Tiger Woods, who tied for sixth place in the tournament with a score of two-over-par.
