Phil Mickelson cracked the top 10 for the first time since June at the Dell Technologies Championship, and the best advice he received last week came from a young golf fan.

While waiting to play his second shot during a practice round, Mickelson asked the young man what he would do in this situation?

"If I could hit my 3-wood 260 (yards) I would probably go for it," the kid fired back.

The five-time major champion took the advice, smashed his 3-wood, then turned back and said, "Riley, you can caddie for me anytime."
