Phil Mickelson shoots 7-under 64 | Round 1 | Wells Fargo | 2021

In the opening round of the 2021 Wells Fargo Championship, Phil Mickelson carded a 7-under 64 to take a two-stroke lead over the field heading into Friday.


The Wells Fargo Championship returns to the PGA TOUR schedule after being cancelled last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Max Homa returns to defend his title against a field full of TOUR stars. The tournament’s only two-time winner Rory McIlroy returns to action for the first time since the Masters. He set a course record in each win, shooting a final-round 62 in 2010 and a third-round 61 in 2015. The top two players in the FedExCup – Justin Thomas and Bryson DeChambeau – are also teeing it up and while they’ll both be looking to build on their recent form, Thomas will be hoping for a repeat of his 2017 outing at the Quail Hollow Club which saw him win the PGA Championship. Meanwhile, Phil Mickelson will make an appearance for the 17th time in 18 editions and owns 12 top-12 finishes at the event. No golfer has ever defended his title at the Wells Fargo Championship. Will the in-form Max Homa break that trend or will we see another name in the history books?

I had a really busy day today, so this was a *SUPER* pleasant surprise.
Breathe, denizens of the senior tour. This guy's not going anywhere quite yet!

[paulsalonen]

Phils turnaround through his health and the way his golf followed is truly admirable.

[lisacateyes]

Come on Phil, turn back the hands of time. This transplanted San Diegan will be rooting for ya all the way from east Tennessee.

[kellysaylors]

I love that he tips his hat to the gallery every time!! “Class act” !!!

[Averyravynwood]

They say the primary difference between mere mortals and Tour players is their short game and putting. Lefty is an absolute artist with his wedges and putter. His short game will always be the gold standard.

[gaiusmarius]

He hit the ball longer than he was 20's. His growth and effort will never stop!!

[krisbrutscher]

Phil has evolved into Maverick and it's looking so good. Love it!

[haizatfaizi]

Growing up fan of phil, good to see him playing well

[UnderPressure]

Guy looks great for being 50 years old. Time gets away from me. Thought he was early 40s. Being a fellow lefty, I always root for Phil and try to emulate his swing. For some reason, the results don't look the same for me! :-D

[kotastrophie]

I like how Original Phil always keeps his clubs and his game. I also like how low key he always is

[turdferguson]

Be awesome for Phil to win, he's still got it.

[flyfisher]

Finally PGA puts out a highlight reel that isn’t all putts!!!! This is what we want.
