Phil Mickelson is determined to become the sixth man to complete a Grand Slam of major championship titles.
The 43-year-old stormed to a three-shot victory in the Open Championship at Muirfield after a superb five-under 66 in the final round, adding the Claret Jug to his three Masters titles and one PGA Championship victory.
The left-hander has finished runner-up in the US Open six times, but he is determined to end that hoodoo and join Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods as winners of all four majors.
“I think that if I’m able to win the US Open and complete the career Grand Slam, I think that that’s the sign of the complete great player,” said Mickelson. – Sky Sports
