Mickelson happy with even-par round

If Phil Mickelson turns out to be right, his even-par round yesterday at the US Open could turn out to be what wins the tournament for him.

In search of his third consecutive major championship, and first US Open title, Mickelson happily signed for a 70. He is right in the thick of things with just a pair of players managing under-par rounds at Winged Foot.
