Phil Mickelson U.S. Open 2023 Odds, History & Prediction (Keep Expectations Low for Lefty)

With the RBC Canadian Open in the rearview mirror, the golf world's attention is now officially turned to the U.S. Open.

One of the most prestigious events in golf, the U.S. Open has the ability to launch any golfer's career to new heights. Despite his illustrious career, Phil Mickelson is one of the many competitors who's never won the tournament before, but he hopes to change that at this year's event.

Here's everything you need to know about Phil Mickelson's U.S. Open odds and history heading into the 2023 event.

Phil Mickelson U.S. Open Odds & Prop Bets

Phil Mickelson has +21000 odds to win the U.S. Open on FanDuel Sportsbook. That mark puts him in a seven-way tie for the 41st-best odds in the field. 

Here's a look at some of the other bets available on Phil Mickelson:

Has Phil Mickelson Ever Won the U.S. Open? (Best Finish, Results & History)

Phil Milson has never won the U.S. Open, but he has placed second/T2 six times (1999, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2009, and 2013). Unfortunately, he hasn't had a noteworthy performance in quite some time. Here's a look at his full U.S. Open results.

Phil Mickelson U.S. Open Prediction 2023

Although Phil Mickelson has yet to win the U.S. Open, he's come awfully close in the past. He's finished as the runner-up six times with the most recent instance happening in 2013. Unfortunately, Mickelson hasn't even cracked the top 25 since then, finishing T52 or worse in each of his last seven entries.

Mickelson has spent the 2023 season with LIV Golf's HyFlyers GC. The results haven't exactly been there, though, having finished 27th or worse in five of seven events. He did show up to the first two major tournaments of the year, though, placing T2 and T58 at the Masters and PGA Championship, respectively.

I'm going to take a safe approach to a bet here by recommending to back Phil Mickelson making the cut at +122 odds. Predicting a finish position is risky, especially with how volatile he's recently been at the U.S. Open. Nevertheless, he's made the cut at both major events so far this season, so I expect him to at least do it again, regardless of where he falls.
