Phil Mickelson Leading PGA Championship
SMITH: I'm Larry Smith at the 87th PGA Championship in Springfield, New Jersey, Baltusrol Golf Club, where the final major of the year has suddenly become a real competition. Phil Mickelson came in as a -- with a three-shot lead but has come back to the field as he bogeyed three of his first six holes. He stands right now though at 16 under par -- make that, I'm sorry, six under par through 16 holes. He is tied, however, with Davis Love II, who won his only career major at the PGA Championship eight years ago. He is also still on the course at six under par. Love trying to win his second career major. Now, earlier in the day, it was Tiger Woods coming on strong with a round of 66, but it could have been much lower than that. He pared the final three holes where he could have gone birdie, birdie, eagle. But Tiger, with everyone else coming back, certainly, very much now in the hunt at even under par, currently six shots off the pace. A record tie today as well, Denmark's Thomas Bjorn tied a record for the lowest round ever at a major, seven under par, 63. He stands at five under par. But once again, the leaders on the course right now, Phil Mickelson and Davis Love III, each at six under par. Stay with us, CNN LIVE SATURDAY continues after this.
