The iconic Payne Stewart statue at Pinehurst was a labor of love


This year marks 25 years since the late, great Payne Stewart’s U.S. Open win at Pinehurst, a victory that — thanks to its down-the-stretch drama, which featured beeper-clad, expectant father Phil Mickelson going toe-to-toe with Stewart, who immortalized himself in golf lore by draining a 15-foot birdie putt to seal the victory — was an instant classic.
