Experience the thrill of Steve Scott's epic finals match against Tiger Woods in the 1996 United States Amateur Championship, twenty-five years later! In August '96, Scott faced Woods at Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club, with 5,345 players narrowing down to just two. Surprising everyone, Scott was 5-up after the first 18 holes. However, at hole 35, Woods squared the match with an incredible 40-foot birdie putt. The outcome hinged on the final hole, but a pivotal moment occurred earlier when Scott reminded Woods to move his mark back on hole 34. Had Scott not acted with integrity, Woods would have faced a penalty, potentially altering his path and denying him three consecutive U.S. Amateur Championships—a feat unmatched by legends like Jack Nicklaus or Bobby Jones. In this compelling narrative, Scott collaborates with storyteller Tripp Bowden to reflect on that life-changing moment and the exhilaration of the championship. They explore how this match not only transformed golf history but also shaped the lives of both competitors. This story offers golf fans an unlikely perspective on a legendary event in the sport.
