Golf-Mickelson says game ready to complete grand slam

June 14 (Reuters) - Phil Mickelson, after a stellar final round at the FedEx St. Jude's Classic on Sunday, sounded excited about his chances of completing the career grand slam at the United States Open next week.

Mickelson, who has won three Masters, a PGA Championship and a British Open, rolled in a 25-foot birdie putt on the closing hole for a five-under 65 to finish equal third at the Memphis event.

Mickelson, who turns 45 on Tuesday, made eight birdies, including three on his final five holes.

"That was fun day," he told CBS after his round.
