PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. Phil Mickelson turns 49 years old during the final round of the U.S. Open this summer, but he believes he can fend off Father Time and remain competitive with his approach to health and fitness.He was asked after winning the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am Monday if he might be the Sam Snead of the modern era, matching Sneads ability to keep winning late in life.Snead was 52 years and 311 days old when he won the Greater Greensboro Open in 1965.The science is so much better nowadays than it was in his time, Mickelson said.
