How about Steve Stricker? The guy barely plays anymore, and still finished in 4th place.
Any other Open, and Stricker is probably right in the mix thru Sunday. Largest gap between 2nd and 3rd ever at a Major.
On Friday, Stricker quadruple bogeyed #15. He got a par on the other 17 holes. Stricker scored a par or better on 66 of the 72 holes. Unbelievable consistency in some tough conditions.
Mickelson would have won or tied every Open Championship in the modern era, with the exception of four.
2016 Henrik Stenson -20
2006 Tiger Woods -18
2000 Tiger Woods -19
