Mickelson fit for Buick Invitational

World number two Phil Mickelson has said that his respiratory problem should not now keep him out of the Buick Invitational starting at Torrey Pines near his San Diego home tomorrow.

Mickelson’s first appearance of the year – and his first clash with Tiger Woods, of course – was in doubt when he spent three days on antibiotics and resting on doctor’s advice.
