All these years later, Mickelson is still chasing the one major he thought he would have won by now. If anything makes Mickelson feel relaxed going into this U.S. Open, it might be what has transpired off the golf course. Only three players that old have won a major " Julius Boros, Jack Nicklaus and Old Tom Morris. Since then, Mickelson played well at Memorial and was runner-up last week at the St. Jude Classic, which he hopes will give him momentum going into Oakmont. He turns 46 on Thursday when the U.S. Open returns to Oakmont for the ninth time, and that only adds to the urgency.
