Day And Mickelson Headline Star-studded Group, Tiger Seeking Fourth Title By: Francis Joseph Jason Day and Phil Mickelson have been drawn together in a star-studded group at the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play, as Tiger Woods eyes a fourth championship. Former world number one Day and five-time major champion Mickelson headline Group 12, which also includes 2016 Open winner Henrik Stenson and former U.S. Open titleholder Jim Furyk for the tournament in Austin. The World Golf Championships event – which Day won in 2014 and 2016 – will start with 16 groups of four players, divided by their world ranking, contesting round-robin matches from Wednesday through to Friday. Only the group winners will advance to Saturday's round of 16, with three-time champion Woods set to feature against Patrick Cantlay, Brandt Snedeker and Aaron Wise in Group 13.79 PGA TOUR wins total for this group. Woods' appearance at the Match Play marks the first time that he will play the round-robin format – rather than the previous single-elimination set-up – and the Austin Country Club course.
