Tiger Woods 1996 US Amateur Championship
The final of the 1996 US Amateur Championship played at Pumpkin Ridge in Portland, Oregon, pitted two-time defending champion Tiger Woods of Stanford against Steve Scott, a sophomore from the University of Florida. Many remember Scott as “the guy whose girlfriend caddied for him,” but the match featured incredible shotmaking on both sides, and more than one stunning turn of events.
Down by five holes with 16 to go, the 20-year-old Stanford student rallied in the afternoon round but was still down by two with only three holes left. Incredibly, Tiger birdies 16 and 17 with long putts to force a playoff. On the second extra hole, Woods wins it with a par. His putter falls from his hands and he raises his arms above his head...claiming his unprecedented third consecutive US Amateur title. Two days later he turned pro and carted about $60 million to the bank.
In this frame, the 16th on the 9th roll, Tiger celebrates (along with his Mom in the red Stanford tee shirt and boyhood friend and caddy Bryon Bell) his birdie on the 17th.
The print is offered in three sizes. The slide shows the original crop as it was shot. The accompanying image shows the approximate print crop.
The crops are approximate and allow for a border to be used in framing/mounting and for the title/signature. All prints larger than 8.5x11" will be titled, numbered and signed. All prints larger than the 8.5X11" are offered as limited editions. No more prints of a particular edition will be printed once it has sold out.
