And perhaps still, U.S. Open remains misery to win it for the lefty, who had won three Masters, two PGAs and a British Open. The Arizonian had finished 2nd or tied 2nd many times in his entire U.S. Open career. In 1999 , Mickelson needs a birdie putt to force Payne Stewart an 18-hole playoff, but ended up with Mickelson made par and Stewart holed birdie putt to win his last major, three months before Stewart killed in the airplane crash .

Australia's Geoff Ogilvy became eventual champion. Mickelson's karma to win the U.S. Open got even wors
