Sharma holds his nerve and the lead in Mexico
MEXICO CITY (AP) — Shubhankar Sharma stayed up in the middle of the night in India to watch golf at the highest level, usually the majors, and the best players became legends to him.
From the time he arrived in Mexico for his first World Golf Championship, he has been hitting balls on the range next to Dustin Johnson and Jordan Spieth, and on Saturday he worked up the courage to introduce himself to Phil Mickelson on the putting green.
"It just feels like there's a TV in front of me, and I'm actually watching it through a TV," Sharma said.
Even more surreal? He's beating them.
