Another Title for Mickelson

Phil Mickelson, completing his rally with a chip-in birdie on No. 18, won his second consecutive Nortel Open on Sunday in Tucson, Ariz., the third time in six years he has captured the tournament.

Tucson National again proved compatible with Mickelson, who came from two shots back and finished by chipping in from 18 feet on the last hole.

He carded a five-under-par 67 for a four-day total of 14-under 273 to beat runner-up Bob Tway and earn his sixth career title.
