Mickelson entered today at two-under, but now finds himself at plus-one. After starting the day T-18, the famous lefty struggled and finished the day at T-32.

For those who follow Mickelson, his struggles today come as no surprise. The 45-year-old veteran has disappointed all season long. In 16 events this season, Mickelson has only placed in the top-10 three times. Not to kick a dead horse, but Mickelson hasn’t won a PGA tour event since 2013.

He was in contention after day one, but now Mickelson is starting to drift back in the leaderboard. If his woes continues, it may be a long while before we see Lefty back on top.
