    The cross-section of storylines from this Open is insane. We had no idea that this would be one of the last times we'd see Payne. We didn't know this would start Phil's run of *almost* winning the Open. And we definitely had no idea what a dominant run of golf Tiger would begin in two months. So it's not just that the tournament itself was great, which it was. It's the unique place the tournament holds in the chronological history of golf.

      ​@@mikewilliams7985 Hey Mike, there's another movie about this open in USGA youtube channel. His wife and other players noted that he told Phil "It's nothing like being a father. You're going to be a great father." and Phil responded saying he's happy for him.
      The even better part is, while hugging his wife, he told her "I kept my head down all day. All day." His wife had seen him the day before and he was not keeping his head down while putting. Something Payne's father wrote down in notes for Payne, but given to his wife, to remind him of. She did so before the next round and, well, the fruit of those notes were clearly shown here.
      Pretty neat!

Have always seen the “highlights” over the years, and after a recent pod I listened to, decided to come back and watch the whole thing. The tension, the nostalgia, everything is just so great. Payne holding off Tiger and Phil is just incredible, then add in the fact of him dying a few months later is just so ominous. I wish we could get back to this.

      "Pounded the year before"?
      Payne nearly led wire-to-wire in 1998.
      If it wasn't for 3 unlucky breaks he'd have won.
      First, the hilariously unfair pin placement on Friday at 18 cost him a shot. His 8-footer for birdie rolled 20 feet by and he bogeyed.
      In the final round, Janzen's tee shot on 5 landed in a tree. He was walking back to the tee to take a lost ball and some guy with binoculars yelled out that it fell out of the tree. Instead of a double bogey that costs him the championship (considering the way the rest of the round played out), he chips in for par.
      Payne finally hits a fairway in the final round on 12 and it lands in a divot. You probably know what happened next.
      That's what cost him in 1998 not any ridiculous " beatdown" as you claim.

    Gotta love Phil smiling during and after Stewart's putt went in... it's like he knew Payne wasn't missing

      I think he was more content with the fact that he would get to fly back to be with his wife who was in labor with their 1st kid as opposed to having to stay for another day

    Watching this I remember we were rooting for Payne but we all thought this was Phil's time to finally break through.

      You must not have watched golf back then, this isn't the only time he wore a shirt that wasn't completely red in a final round.
