Phil Mickelson carded a final round of 1-under-par 70 to win the Northern Trust Open by two strokes over Jeff Quinney.
Mickelson was up by two strokes at the seventh hole, but Jeff Quinney's hot putter cut the lead to one with birdie at the eight hole. Quinney found himself in the lead at the turn after a two shot swing at the ninth hole. Mickelson responded on the next hole with a birdie, which tied both players at 13-under-par. The match continued tied until the 13th hole when Quinney's putter cooled down and he suffered three bogeys in a row. Mickelson was up by two strokes after the 15th and went ahead by three strokes when Quinney bogeyed the 17th hole. Phil played it safe on the final hole and tapped in a par-putt for a two stroke victory. The win is Mickelson's first at Riviera and it is his 16th career win on the West Coast. It also is his 33rd PGA Tour career win, which now puts him up to 13th on the All-Time career list. His next event will start on Wednesday at WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship.
