2019 WGC Mexico Preview
In 2018, Phil Mickelson bested Justin Thomas in a playoff at this event to win his first PGA Tour title in four and a half years.
“I don’t know what to say. It has been a tough go the last four years,” Mickelson said after the victory, according to Golfweek. “Not playing my best, but having the belief that I was going to get there and finally break through and to do it feels incredible. I believe that more is to come. I feel like I am starting to play some of my best golf and to culminate here in Mexico City with a World Golf Championship victory is exciting to me beyond words because it just validates the hard work that I’ve put in and the struggles for the last few years to finally get my game back.”
He posted a 66 in the final round to finish to finish at -16. Thomas, then 24 years old, hit a 62 in the third round, then 64 in the fourth.
“It is beyond belief and if you look at what Justin Thomas did this weekend, shooting 16-under on this golf course over two days, just incredible golf,” Mickelson added. “Trying to compete against these guys I know and respect and admire how great these young players are, and yet I welcome and cherish the opportunity to compete against them. And to have a little taste of success this year is really encouraging.”
In his third start of 2019, Mickelson won his first event since last year’s WGC-Mexico Championship, taking the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am by three strokes.
Last year, Shubhankar Sharma of India led by two strokes after the second and third rounds, but he posted a 74 across the final 18 to finish in ninth place with -10.
“It (Mexico) was definitely a highlight in 2018. I couldn’t finish it off, but it was a turning point for me. It showed I could play against best in the world in what was my first WGC of my career,” Sharma said, according to the PGA Tour website. “Having a chance to win at this stage of my career was a good experience, and upon my return home, I received a lot of support and a lot of kids now look up to me and they also believe they can play at the highest stage.”
“Mexico was a really big stage and I had a chance to win which was huge. Hopefully I’ll get more opportunities.”
