Mickelson, Johnson remain unblemished at WGC-Match Play

Erich Schlegel-USA TODAY Sports

AUSTIN, Texas - Dustin Johnson and Phil Mickelson had another easy time and remain undefeated in the Match Play.

The biggest battle is the wind.

Gusts upward of 30 mph are wreaking havoc across Austin Country Club. On the 12th hole, Daniel Berger hit into the water to seemingly lose the hole. Mickelson was just right of the green, and it was so fast that he chipped into the water. They halved the hole, but Mickelson won the match, 5 and 4.

Johnson, the No. 1 seed, was 4 up with four to play against Martin Kaymer and nearly drove the green with a 380-yard drive. His flip wedge bounded over the green and he lost the hole. He still won, 4 and 3.
