Mickelson WD's From Farmers With Back Injury
/Doug Ferguson reports on what looked inevitable this afternoon based on his obvious discomfort.
Anyone who's had back issues knew the body language and instead of trying to push through Saturday, Phil Mickelson has pulled out of the Farmers Insurance Open.
Mickelson flew halfway across the world from Abu Dhabi to be at Torrey Pines.
He has the Waste Management Open and AT&T National Pro-Am on his radar the next two weeks.
