US Open 2013 Results: Biggest Winners and Losers at Merion

Shades of the 2012 Ryder Cup. There was Justin Rose and Phil Mickelson locked in combat at Merion Golf Club just as they had been in their head-to-head match last year. Once again, it was the Englishman who prevailed. Rose outlasted a great field with a bouncy Sunday that included five birdies and five bogies to end where he began at plus one. Rain or shine, the 100-year-old and 6,996-yard Merion overcame...

Ranking the Best Grass-Court Players in Tennis History

Before 1975, when three of the four Grand Slam events were played on grass, proficiency on grass courts was necessary to achieve tennis stardom. The U.S. Pro Championships, a major event for professionals before the Open Era began in 1968, was also contested on grass sometimes.

Phil Mickelson, US Open, Father’s Day, His Birthday & A Story That Writes Itself

Not literally, of course, as the man is probably too tired to come down to the media center at the 2013 U.S. Open to write a few hundred columns after shooting an even-par 70 in the third round to take a one-stroke lead into the final round on Sunday. Actually, get your rest, Phil. We don’t even need you to write this story for us....
