Mickelson captured his third major championship by winning the 2006 Masters. He won his second Green Jacket after shooting a 3 under par final round, winning by 2 strokes over his nearest rival Tim Clark. This win propelled him to 2nd place in the world golf rankings (his career best), behind Tiger Woods and ahead of Vijay Singh and Retief Goosen.

This past weekend's US Open provided several surprises and, for the most part, I did enjoy the tournament. Unlike some, I was not surprised that Tiger Woods missed the cut for the first time at a major (as a professional). I think it was unrealistic to expect him to perform up to his usual excellent standard after having not played in a tournament in nine weeks. Factor in the loss of his father, with whom he was extremely close, the inherent difficulties of a US Open course setup and the fact it was played at Winged Foot (perhaps the single most difficult venue for the Open), and it was a recipe for failure. No worries. He'll be back.\n\nAs for the dramatic events at the conclusion of the Open on Sunday, I felt worst for the much-maligned Colin Montgomery of Scotland who but for one poorly played shot at the worst possible moment (his approach shot on the 18th hole) would have finally won his first major at the age of 43. Although I also felt bad for Phil Mickelson, he at least has three majors now and, more importantly, he basically threw away his chance to win on Sunday. Phil resorted to his bad old, ramblin', gamblin' ways and deservedly lost because of it, double-bogeying the final hole.\n\nThe bottom line is that the talented young Aussie, Geoff Ogilvy, was a deserving champion and is an excellent golfer in his own right (not a fluke, trust me). He did what was necessary to remain in contention and win the tournament. The fact that others blew their chances is hardly a reflection on his own play. Well done!

If you're asking about who I think will win the US Open I'll go with Tiger.  Mainly because I think he's on a mission to win it for his dad and when he gets into his lazer focused frame of mind then he's really tough to beat.

Phil Mickelson or Tiger Woods, but not Michael Campbell this year.

I think Phil Mickelson has to be the favourite going into the Masters after his stunning victory in the recent Bell South Classic. He seems to be playing very consistent golf and is a former champion.\n\nTiger is not the favourite because he is quite understanbly focused on his father's health at the moment, but it is never wise to rule him out at Augusta. Retief Goosen and Ernie Els should be placed as outsiders as they are good accurate players, though they haven't found full form yet.

The previous question on this topic, elicited 5085 and counting, how many answers, you reckon you'll get son?\n\n\nMy greatest sports feat coming from a football fan is surprisingly golf. 1986 US Masters won by Jack Nicklaus, followed by Pete Sampras winning his final US Open.
