Roars echoed from all over Augusta National’s grounds on Sunday afternoon, but none of them were coming from Phil Mickelson ‘s group. It felt strange watching the final round and not catching a glimpse of Mickelson hitting a shot from behind a tree or rolling in a 25-footer to get within a shot of the lead. We’ve come to expect a certain level of play from him when he tees it up at the Masters …

ST. ANDREWS, Scotland — What do you think of Louis Oosthuizen now?
When the unknown 27-year-old South African introduced himself to the British Open by zipping to a lopsided five-shot lead after two rounds of play, the obvious reaction was to yawn and ask for a Sunday afternoon wake-up call.
Early leaders in major championship golf are as predictable as smoke in the wind. And considering St. Andrews has been all but swept away this week by 35-40 mph gusts whipping in from the North Sea, Oosthuizen’s early success came with no small level of staying-power suspicion.
All the doubt did not mystically vanish Saturday, but then, neither did Oosthuizen. That means, now, it really gets serious.

“You know, I’m really happy with myself, keeping my emotions intact, playing the last round Saturday, leading and the way I played,” Oosthuizen said. “I could only control myself. If someone came through shooting 64, there’s nothing I can do. Tomorrow I’m going to do pretty much the same and just go out there and never get ahead of myself.”
