Payne Stewart 1999 US Open Ticket With Photo Display - Framed
The Fathers Day final round dual of Phil Mickelson and Payne Stewart featured one of the most memorable closes to a U.S. Open in history. Stewart closed the 1999 Open Championship out with a 15 foot par putt that dropped on the 18th hole to give him a one stroke win over Mickelson. He embraced Phil, who was looking for his first major and also the birth of his first child the next day, consoling him on the loss and raising his spirits with the famous line , "you are going to make a great father". This was as good as you can could get in the close to a Father's Day U.S. Open. The win marked Stewart's second U.S. Open triumph (1991) and third Major victory (1989 PGA). The Open win at Pinehurst#2 in '99 also verified in the media and fan's minds alike that Stewart's career was Hall of Fame worthy. Presented here is a great framed display piece depicting a photo of Payne holding the trophy, one of his infamous Pinehurst fist pump, and these are accompanied by an unused ticket to the 1999 US Open.
32" x 26" frame, large photo is 14" x 18", and smaller photo measures 7" x 9". Ticket is Monday grounds only ticket
