After Further Review: What will Phil do next?

After Further Review: What will Phil do next?

Each week, GolfChannel.com takes a look back at the week in golf. Here's what's weighing on our writers' minds.On Phil Mickelson's latest snafu ...This might be Phil Mickelsons most unpredictable season ever.After spending four years talking about how close he was to putting it all together, he finally did in a World Golf Championship event, no less. After spending the better part of two decades trying to get the best of Tiger Woods, hes now fully embraced him, to the point that hes playing practice rounds with him and willing to share the marquee in a $10 million exhibition. And after spending a lifetime chasing the U.S. Open, he had a meltdown at Shinnecock Hills that, if it didnt harm his reputation, may at least have irreparably damaged his relationship with the golf gods.Its passed off as Phil being Phil, but after another boneheaded move on Sunday at The Greenbrier he tapped down long grass in front of the tee box, a mistake that cost him two shots he offered a clue as to whats going on: I wasnt having my best day, focus-wise.  Its not the first time that Mickelson has cited his on-course focus, or lack thereof; he even said recently that hes seen a doctor for the problem. When hes locked in, Mickelson is a threat to win any tournament he plays. But when hes not, like he clearly hasnt been over the past month, hes liable to do, well, just about anything. Ryan Lavner
On Danny Willett's whereabouts ...Danny Willett made an appearance on the leaderboards this weekend in Ireland, further indication that the career of the 2016 Masters champ just might be on the upward swing.Willett hasnt won a tournament since edging Jordan Spieth for a green jacket more than two years ago, and his form has fallen off a cliff since his major breakthrough. He switched swing coaches last year, and this week teed off at Ballyliffin ranked No. 442 in the world.But Willett tied for sixth Sunday, five weeks after a T-8 finish at the Italian Open. While hes sprinkled those results among a run of missed cuts elsewhere, other players have sparked comebacks with even less inspiring results.So dont count out the Englishman just yet. - Will Gray
On the decision against use of a compassEarlier this week the USGA along with the R&A ruled that a protractor, or drawing compass, would not be allowed during a stipulated round because it is considered unusual equipment that might assist [a player] in making a stroke or in his play.Theres a growing element among PGA Tour types that green-reading books, which have become ubiquitous among the play-for-pay set, are next. Perhaps the current rule makers consider it a good start in the quest to stamp out slow play. - Rex Hoggard
