Phil Mickelson birdied four of his last five holes Saturday to put himself in contention for his sixth major title, shooting a 4-under 67 that left him three shots behind leader Rory McIlroy at the PGA Championship.

He'll play in the next-to-last group on Sunday with Rickie Fowler looking to end his longest winless streak in more than a decade.

"I've put myself in a position now where if I ... play the way I feel I can and shoot the number I believe I can, I'm in a position to win the golf tournament," the 44-year-old Hall of Famer said. "That's what feels good."
