AI notes: In 2004, Phil Mickelson captured his first Masters Tournament victory at Augusta National, a milestone that ended years of near-misses in major championships and reshaped his career legacy. Entering the final round just one stroke behind the leaders, Mickelson played aggressively, particularly on the back nine, using his exceptional short game and putting skills to navigate Augusta’s challenging greens. He famously made clutch birdies on holes such as the par-5 13th and 15th, and steadied himself under pressure despite bogeys on 12 and 16, ultimately finishing nine under par with a one-stroke margin over Ernie Els. The win was celebrated not only as a personal breakthrough—finally shedding the label of the “best player never to win a major”—but also as a display of Mickelson’s fearless, inventive style of play, earning him widespread admiration from fans and peers alike.
