Clark wins, Tiger ousted; Mickelson new favorite?
Tiger Woods was shocked by Tim Clark on Thursday in the second round of the Accenture WGC Match Play event in Marana, Ariz., leaving the golfing world without the thrill and anticipation that could've come with his weekend play. View highlights from today's match above.
Phil Mickelson snuck out of another close match, this time against Cedar Rapids native Zach Johnson, who fought his way back from 3 down to take Lefty to the 18th green before bowing out. With so many top seeds out of the tournament, including No. 1 seeds Vijay Singh, Woods, and Sergio Garcia, you'd have to say Mickelson is the favorite coming off a win at the Northern Trust Open.
Back with more later this weekend.

You say Woods was "shocked" by Clark. Did Woods' defeat shock you, or was this a match you thought Tiger wouldn't have a problem with?
Personally, am I surprised it was Clark? Yes. Am I surprised he was ousted in the second round? Not really.
However, I look forward to seeing Tiger back on top. Unless some insane and truthful report is published saying Tiger is on roids. Then I would just lose my faith in humanity, sports, and just about everything else. Good thing that won't happen. Good to see him back.
