1999 U.S. Open (Final Round): Payne Stewart's Clutch Performance at Pinehurst | Full Broadcast

[@jtex1013]

NLU pinehurst deep dive got me back here. What a watch.

[@natturner534]

Same here, brother.

[@SNESdrunk]

Same, Tiger fist pump at 4:34:54 that KVV mentioned, so good

[@apmflyer08]

4:31:16 Amy!

[@tiffhansen8787]

I’m 37.. this was by far the most memorable open I’ve ever watched. Phil, Tiger, Singh, Duval, the veteran Stewart, weather was a factor and an epic finish

[@richlewis1879]

These days were amazing. Rip

[@healthyone100]

@@richlewis1879 Never forget where i was when i heard the news Payne was killed!

[@gwakpyunghwa]

Agreed. The ‘96 Masters and ‘99 US Open are the most dramatic golf tournaments I’ve ever seen.

[@jamesjefferson3809]

Been waiting a long time for the full final round upload on KZbin. Thank you USGA👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@usga]

You're welcome! More on the way 🙌

[@matty2578]

Just unbelievable - what an Open. How about Payne and Phil both sticking their iron shots on 17, both tied for the lead? Amazing.

[@gabrielwilson6484]

Watched every minute. By far my favorite era of golf.

[@nekoKanapon]

a winning putt that looks like a scene from a movie. It's amazing no matter how many times I watch it. Thank you Payne Stewart and Phil Mickelson. It was a great match that will go down in history.

[@markstewartsbreakingthecha3531]

Listen closely to the exchange between Tracy and Payne during their embrace. Tracy had seen him moving his head while putting and they went to the practice green after round three and worked on it. "I kept my head down" he said "I know you did I'm so proud of you"

[@anger57289]

She'd made him perfect the 12 ball round the clock drill so many years earlier

[@jamesmcdowell5850]

Dang. The PGA Tour sure could use another Payne Stewart these days. What a genuine person and competitor! This championship will always be one of the greats! RIP my friend ❤

[@MrAJR76]

Were you friends with him?

[@richlewis1879]

My all time favorite open. And I'm a tiger fanatic. This tournament was phenomenal, then it meant more after a horrible tragedy

[@araydog]

One of the all time great final round US OPEN’s

[@wesleypratt221]

The iron shot Phil and Payne hit on 17 have to be the 2 best shots like that under pressure ever.

[@eazyeach1876]

After all these years I still got goosebumps.

[@Rick-C-117]

It’s amazing how Payne’s swing was so loose, but it worked for him and he’s one of the greatest of all time.

[@kentdavies1988]

I remember watching this at 10 years old at my uncles. My grandpa and uncle Perry who passed away since then were there. I remember everyone talking about how great this ending was. Long before I respected golf. Brings me to tears now...

[@bobking3730]

How the sport (and the world) misses Payne Stewart. RIP champ.

[@mikemartin5340]

Just insane that 25 years later, still no us open for Phil. For the first decade of his career, it felt like this was the one that would come first. And for that entire back 9, felt like he was in the drivers seat. This was the peak era before golf equipment got out of control

[@richlewis1879]

Crazy how much Pinehurst has changed since back then.

[@fastfaze2125]

What a great champion! RIP Payne Stewart.

[@mphommopi3728]

He one of the people I loved to watch because of his fit. He is greatly missed

[@johnaustin635]

He was an arrogant self righteous a**hole nothing less end of !!!

[@Tom-ok2rh]

And it’s only fitting that Pinehurst #2 has honored Payne with a lovely statue outside of the clubhouse with the famous pose of his winning putt that day.

[@anger57289]

@@Tom-ok2rh There's also a lesser-known statue of Payne at Waterville GC in Ireland. He'd developed a relationship with the club when using it as practice for the Opens in 98 and 99. Both are on my bucket list :)

[@rancan44able]

I was a caddy there the following year and I walked number 2 a bunch it’s a super hard course. And it’s super hard with no water in play . Just a small pond in front of 16 tee box . Crazy lay out and greens break up hill so much there .. just blows your mind

[@kingrussell5520]

John Daly 16:00 infamous chip

[@DiscoverPianoTV]

Thanks so much!

[@DiscoverPianoTV]

The self righteous commentary after the chip was absolutely pathetic.

[@natturner534]

Sick!

[@SethMacLeod95]

A really good analysis by Johnny Miller just after that.

[@jonathanehlers6855]

Who is watching this during the 2024 US Open? RIP Payne.

[@MIKIEEYEZ1975]

I’ll never forget where I was when I heard the news of Payne’s passing. I was in my Bowling league in the bar ordering my beer & the news came in the TV. We were so stunned. I be was bummed out the rest of the night. It was totally surreal!!

Greatest putting in a US open ever Payne .

[@curtiselmquist8778]

You could tell back then how beautiful human Payne was. ❤

[@bretts4544]

Temps in the 60s and rainy. Pretty rare in June for North Carolina!

[@derrickrr5516]

5:12:45 I love the embrace Payne and his wife had. I don’t see that display of raw emotion and love between spouses anymore. People were so much better back then.

[@jdheelfan]

An amazing finish and an incredible letdown. The ROAR we would have heard if Tiger's birdie on 18 had dropped would have been legendary

[@frankkoolosko4255]

I forgot how beautiful Payne Stewart swing looked. They’ll never be another one..

[@kylenussbaum5]

Even though he hasn't won the US Open this was a championship performance from Phil, a sign of things to come with the 6 majors.

[@kylem7341]

Great US Open. Then 4 months later 😢

[@derrickrr5516]

5:19:00 Prophetic in ways that no one could’ve predicted. I remember agreeing when he spoke these words but only because he was getting older and you only get so many chances to win a major, even if you’re one of the best in the world. I miss watching you play, Payne!

[@pablobiscuit134]

Vedere Payne Stewart mi fa venire i brividi. Un grande del golf per sempre nel mio cuore. ❤

[@ManuelFlores-oe2wf]

Greatest US Open all time

[@Tom-ok2rh]

Funny how far they are hitting the ball compared to this telecast from 1999. Mickelson was hitting a 3 iron from 216 yds on second hole. I believe he is 52 years old or thereabouts today and I bet he can use a 5 iron from that same distance today. Stronger lofts and the modern golf ball of today have resulted in how far they hit it nowadays. Even though the pros clobber it a long way it’s still exciting to watch.

[@phins13td]

@4:52:14, "Oh what a shot" and then Johhny Miller gives the Ric Flair wooooooooo, classic stuff

[@mphommopi3728]

Phil played so great. And Tiger. But the right man won. RIP champ.

Brilliant 👏

so sad that in a few short months from then, payne would be gone

Same here. And Peter Kostis on CBS and Gary Koch on NBC.

[@jeffreyval9665]

Tiger is the best closer of all time. If he has a lead after 54 holes it's almost a guarantee he's winning. If there's anything he hasn't done in majors is go real low and come from behind and win a major. That's definitely not a knock on Tiger. It's just something he hasn't done.

[@FBIStatMajor]

But he did that in 2019

[@jeffreyval9665]

@@FBIStatMajor he was either in the lead or tied for it. Wasn't he in the last group?

[@FBIStatMajor]

@@jeffreyval9665 no, he was 2 shots off mollinari. he was not in the last group

[@jeffreyval9665]

@@FBIStatMajor ok I wasn't sure but I was just saying in my original comment for as unbelievably great Tiger has been in the majors he's never had that final round 65 or something really low that vaulted him from like 6 or 7 shots back to victory. I think this was the most he was ever down going into a final rd and won. He's held off some great charges from other players like that amazing back 9 31 he along with Bob May shot at the PGA. He's just a better closer than having to put up some really low number on Sunday to win.

[@boskey10]

​@@FBIStatMajor That was handed to him on a silver platter.

He is missed by 90% of golf fans

[@MIKIEEYEZ1975]

I Love Dan Hicks as an NBC GOLF announcer, especially teamed with Johnny Miller.2 Giants of Golf Announcing!! Johnny Miller always tells it like it is.. When NBC Dumped him they made a BIG MISTAKE!!

[@bretts4544]

He wasn’t dumped by NBC he retired. He was 71 which is usually about the time most announcers call it quits. Ken Venturi was 71 when he retired in 2002

[@marvinburkholder8907]

Johnny Miller was the beginning of the end of good golf coverage. He could never just shut his mouth and nd let the drama unfold. Nope, he had to have an opinion on everything and armchair quarterback every shot even if he had no idea what he was saying. Faldo was a good announcer but other than him the TV people are awful.

[@richlewis1879]

So much drama. Phil's wife pregnant. Payne showed the young studs what's up. This was an ultimate send-off for a great champion

[@codyhamilton4960]

Johnny Miller was great!

[@grgoldner]

Tiger didn't wear his normal Sunday red and black. Why?

[@richlewis1879]

At that point, as long as he had red. He was just on the Verge of complete dominance

[@jamesroboyle]

This was right before everything came together in Tiger’s game .

[@MrAJR76]

At this point, he was vying with Duval for a he no.1 position. Two months after this, he started winning everything and left everyone else for dead. That’s “wtf” he was talking about. Okay?

greens border on unfair at that speed

[@KingMinosxxvi]

little did phil know he would finish 2nd 100 times!

[@tomdallas3690]

Johnny Miller not giving Payne Stewart a lot of credit. Saying it would be a miracle up and down with a wedge from the fairway? Then saying the odds are quite good that he misses the par putt on 18? Wedge shot was not hard, even being a US Open. The putt was as easy as could be from that distance, with no real risk of running it too far past.

[@tkannon7]

Tiger walking in with his hat backwards !! You know there was some old timers in there mad about it ! I love it knowing there was nothing they could do about it !!!

[@MrAJR76]

Sorry to disappoint you, but I doubt they were particularly bothered. It was US Open week - there were all sorts milling about the clubhouse that week. Now if he’d walked in wearing jeans and a vest, they might have raised their eyebrows!

[@DMKFACTOR]

RIP Payne. We loved you and miss you!

[@racebannon8569]

The course was so much more atractive in '99 than it is now. Clean & green as opposed to being so dirty looking like it is now.

[@presidentgas4980]

1999 when the fashion of the day was baggy, baggy , baggy. Many looked like they wore everything 2 sizes too big.

If tiger would have stayed an amateur he would have broken all of jones records! Then turn pro and broke more records!

William Payne Stuart a true champion,god surely gave him strength ,but the style was ALL his own,Bless his soul....😇

[@Diego-Delgado]

This was the pinnacle of us open golf. not tiger at pebble. payne at pinehurst was the best. the players, weather, venue. this was the top of the top here

[@jamesroboyle]

Payne didn’t win by 15 shots .

[@MrAJR76]

That’s not the point James. Stewart’s win was dramatic and incredibly exciting. Tiger’s win was incredible and historic - but not an exciting dramatic final day like in ‘99.
