The defending champion was disappointing in his opening two rounds at August National and has struggled with both his driving and his putting, which has meant that he has had to scramble to make pars, while those around him have been making birdies.

"I left too many shots out there," he said. "I had six up and downs that were not hard and I didn't make them.

"I haven't made any putts. I've caught a lot of lips. My speed has been just a fraction off, just too firm or in a lot of cases just too soft on these greens.

"I've been a little bit defensive, and then yesterday my short game was really short; today it wasn't. But I left a lot out there today. I can't afford this weekend to leave those shots out there."

"Fortunately I am not in that bad a position and I can get back in it. These next two days are my favourite two days of the year and you can make up a lot of ground.

"I was able to do it last year on Saturday, and I'm going to have to make a good run tomorrow, too."

Mickelson is currently two under par, eight shots off halfway leader Rory McIlroy. He can be backed at 22/1, with bet365, to win the US Masters.
