As defending champion Phil Mickelson prepares for the 2014 Scottish Open, he's making sure to explore every possible angle of Royal Aberdeen in case he gets caught in a sticky situation. 

On Monday, Mickelson showcased just how tricky he can be, hitting a flop shot backwards off a hill and onto the middle of the green. 

Never in doubt.
