Mickelson to play at US Open
Tuesday, 2 June 2009 10:59World number two Phil Mickelson has decided to play in the US Open later this month.
Mickelson's participation in the second major of the year had been in doubt after he announced he was taking a break from golf to support his wife, who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer.
But he will now tee off at Bethpage as it reportedly fits in with his wife's treatment schedule.
Mickelson said on his website last week: 'We have a wonderful team of doctors helping us, and it is believed that we caught this early.
'We are anxiously waiting for a number of test results that will help guide us in the best possible direction.'
