|
So I'm watching the PGA today, and my mind harkens back (harkens?) to the 96 US Amatuer where Woods comes back from like 6 holes down, drops a couple of 30-footers and beats Steve SomethingOrOther in extra holes for his 3rd straight Amatuer. Then he turns pro, wins a couple of tourneys, wins the Masters, wins everything else, makes a bazillion dollars, becomes the most famous athlete on the planet, and marries Jesper Parnavik's nanny. Shit happens. So I'm wondering where Steve SomethingOrOther is now, and is he sitting at the lodge telling every drunken slob within earshot that he really was just one putt away from not only changing the face of golf, but having a legitimate shot at Jesper Parnivik's nanny? Where is that guy now? Anyone know?

Anyone know? His name is Steve Scott. He played a couple years on the Canadian Tour but he isn't on the PGA or Nationwide tour currently. The last year he played regularly on the Canadian Tour was 2004. Rich

He was a lot closer to winning than one putt. I'm going from memory now, but IIRC he was two up as they were playing the 34th hole of the final. Tiger's ball was right in his line, and he asked Tiger to move his marker over to the side. After he putted, Tiger apparently forgot to move his marker back, and Steve reminded him. If he hadn't, Tiger would have lost the hole, and therefore the match.

Yes, you're absolutely correct about that. I remember Johnny Miller making a comment about it at the time. I guess nice guys really do finish last. Or second anyway. Oh well, I remember that he had a cute girlfriend who was caddying for him. 'Course, she probably dumped him shortly thereafter and made a play for Tiger. Everyone loves a winner after all.

I remember that she was incredibally supportive throughout that final round. Steve's a lucky guy.

Back when I was taught the rules, it was explained to me that a competitor is suppose to help avoid rules infractions. Etiquette would tend to require that Steve have reminded Tiger of having moved the marker, especially since Tiger moved it at Steve's request.

He did the right thing, and I would hope every golfer would do the same. But he could have forgotten like Tiger did, or not noticed that Tiger didn't move it back.
