Phil Back To The Two Driver System Just In Time For The Masters

Heck, I'm just happy he's got two instead of none, ala Torrey Pines. Jeff Babineau reports:

Mickelson said the idea to carry two drivers on a blustery day at Doral – winds gusted to 25 mph – was the idea of his seasoned caddie, Jim “Bones” Mackay. Here’s the deal: Mickelson hits the Callaway FT-9 Tour driver that is his usual “gamer” high and long, and carries it a long ways. “It carries forever,” he said.

The “other” driver that made its way into his bag was an old Callaway FT-5 that was stored at his house, a driver with which he won at Pebble Beach three years ago. With that one, he can flight the ball lower, something that came in handy on a breezy opening day at Doral. To make room for the extra driver, he took his 57-degree wedge out of the bag.

“There are times,” he said, “when you don’t need those 20 extra yards.”

Truth be told, he didn’t drive it great with either driver.
