Three days of golf are complete at the 2013 US Open, where Phil Mickelson has the lead at one-under heading into the final round of the second major championship on the PGA Tour this season. 

Merion Golf Club has proven to be the most difficult golf course of the season so far, with "frustrating" likely a word you'll hear tossed around a lot in the upcoming week with respect to playback of specific player rounds.
