From Scotty Cameron's masterful hands to Champion Tiger Woods, to Woods' California based club fitter Bill Orr to this prize's winning bidder - a star-studded line of ownership succession unlike any other!

Letter of Authenticity. Woods played with PING putters in the two prior US Amateurs. That's right, spectacularly this is Tiger Woods' very first victory putter produced by Scotty Cameron celebrating Tiger's 1996 US Amateur win at Pumpkin Ridge.
