He should have won in 2006 at Winged Foot where he had a one-shot lead on the 72nd hole. He butchered the hole and took double-bogey, losing out on a playoff too. The immortal Geoff Ogilvie won (he has since disappeared from the tour).

Is life complete for a professional elite golfer without a US Open? Sure. Sam Snead never won it either. Tom Watson never won the PGA. Lee Trevino never won the Master's. Such is life.

What if Phil Mickelson never wins a U.S. Open?

Well, I'm going out on a limb here, but I'd say that Phil Mickelson never won a U.S. Open.

Investopedia: Enbrel, used to combat severe arthritis and similar inflammatory diseases. First synthesized in the 1990s, then sold to a company that Amgen later bought, Enbrel is patented through 2028. A syringe containing 50 milligrams of Enbrel can cost around $700. Even the most gallant Third World attempt at a generic reduces that price by only a couple of hundred dollars. Amgen sold $4.6 billion worth of Embrel last year.

I will struggle to survive. God willing I will make it ... but even then ... I'm sure that my life will be a living hell ...

I'm a big Phil fan, but the US open has been his jinx, finishing 2nd an amazing 6 times.

A couple of those were plain Phil being Phil stupid. Taking longshot chances cost him at least two absolute wins, but he's had a wonderful run.

I'm still rooting for him, but I'm not overly optimistic.

However, he has five wins at Pebble, so...maybe...
