Mickelson erased a
46-event streak (which included four tries as an
amateur) of never having won a major championship. The
streak came to a halt as Mickelson coaxed in a
downhill 18-foot birdie putt on the 72nd hole. The
putt also gave Mickelson his first berth in the 22nd
PGA Grand Slam of Golf, Nov. 22-24, at Poipu Bay Golf
Course at The Hyatt Regency Kauai Resort & Spa in
Kauai, Hawai
Mickelson's previous major disappointments most
notably one stroke losses to Payne Stewart in the 1999
U.S. Open and to David Toms in the 2001 PGA
Championship seemed far away now.
