    I was working in a golf shop in Atlanta back in the 90s. Payne and Frank Nobilo came into our shop for an autograph session. Believe it or not, not a lot of people showed up and instead of leaving, Payne stayed and talked to us for an hour. He was truly one of the coolest dudes you'd ever meet.

    Dude was my favorite golfer when I was in my late teens/early twenties. After he passed, I never really had another favorite golfer. Sure, I liked Tiger, but he wasn’t Payne Stewart. As I’ve gotten older, and started reading up on him, I had no idea how stellar of a dude he was. There’ll never be another like him.

    This for me is right up there with the 1986 Masters. Payne Stewart at age 42 out dueling Tiger and Phil in their prime with unreal clutch putting will go down in history as one of the all time great performances in the history of Professional Golf. And the way he reacted when he won with the giant fist pump and the emotion of winning. To telling Phil how happy he was for him and his wife that they were gonna be parents. My god tears are flowing down my face. There will never be another Payne Stewart. He was a hall of famer on and off the course

    I was a huge Payne Stewart fan and in the late 80's I got to be a standard bearer for his group in the Isuzu Kapalua Open on the Celebrity Pro-Am day. Huey Lewis was the celebrity playing with him and it was amazing to watch the 2 of them play their harmonicas and goof off before teeing off. One of the funnest days ever.

      There are always people out there who hate for the point of hating. Maybe they hate Payne Stewart because he had the misfortune of being a white, hetero male who worked very hard and was a devoted husband and father? Oh, and even worse... a CHRISTIAN! These days those are grounds for immediate hatred among the mainstream media and the liberal elite/intelligentsia/brainless followers of identity-politics dogma. I wish I was being sarcastic, but this is just the world we live in now.

    To make a 25 footer, then one from 7 and one from 15 on the last 3 holes to win a US Open...that's just epic. You could see Mickelson walking when he hit that last putt fully expecting him to miss and I'll guarantee that he was 100% expecting a playoff the next day. Phil looked shocked when he made it. That silky smooth swing and putting stroke. He was incredible.

    • @nathanavery4681

    Growing up with Payne and his family at the local club in Springfield was something else. He was a bit of a bully when we were young. He was 2 years older than me.
    After he got famous, whenever I tan i to him? He was kind, gracious and acted like we were old friends. Even though we were never close. I miss him. My ex wife, who could care less about golf, cried when he won this as I had introduced them in the St Louis airport and he was really kind to her, ribbing her about marrying me.

When I was coaching golf for Monte Vista Chrisitian School in Watsonville, we took a trip to watch the Pebble Beach Pro-Am....two things happened there invovling Paine...I saw his fluid swing...which was magical...and so effortless...and one of my students on the golf team got Paine to sign his cap...Thanks for the memories!

Then all of a sudden I thought he was the king of cool and the most grounded star athlete ever. Turns out I later found out he became a devout Christian. The change in him was stark and Im glad that happened.

He took her golfing with Jordan and Clinton . A very special man with a great family .
