Intro:

Phil Mickelson has said that his game is coming together and he was buoyed by a solid performance at last weekend's Wells Fargo tournament.

Though he faltered on the final 18, he said he was encouraged as he prepared for this week's Players Championship.

SOUNDBITE: (English) Phil Mickelson:

"The parts of the game feel better to me than they've ever been. I feel like I'm driving the ball longer and straighter than I have in years. I feel like my long iron play has been better than it's ever been, I feel like my short iron play has been sharp. I feel good with the putter. But I've had off days with each one, and I haven't been able to put it together. Last week was a good week for me, even though the last day didn't go well, because I was able to put it together for that third round and shoot the score that I believe I was able to shoot, that I knew I could shoot. I think that that tournament I have to look at more as a stepping-stone for the rest of the year."
