Men's Golf Program, Winning by One Stroke at 8-Under After Carding a 1-Under 71 at the Con- Cession Golf Club Men’s Golf Men’s Golf October 25, 2018 marked the 19-year anniversary of the tragic passing of one of SMU’s most prominent athletes and one of golf’s most charismatic figures, Payne Stewart. Stewart, an 11-time PGA Tour winner and three-time Major Champion, left an impact on the world of golf and the Mustangs’ golf program. After playing at Southern Methodist University (SMU) and earning his degree, the Missouri-native turned professional late in 1979, but failed to earn a PGA Tour card. So, instead, he competed on the Asian Tour, winning twice. In 1982, Stewart earned his PGA Tour card, where he went on to claim his first-of-11 PGA Tour titles, the 1982 Quad Cities Open. Stewart would total 11 PGA Tour wins in his career, and won his first major at the 1989 PGA Championship. In 1991, Stewart claimed his first U.S. Open, before going on to win his second in 1999, dramatically sinking a 15-foot putt to beat Phil Mickelson by one stroke. Payne went on to become one of the most unforgettable figures in golf, striding the fairways in signature plus-fours and a tam-o’-shanter cap, while displaying a graceful, fluid golf swing and intensity. He was posthumously inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2001, before being inducted into the 2015 PGA of America Hall of Fame. In 2000, the PGA Tour established the Payne Stewart Award, which is given each year to a player who shows respect for the traditions of the game, com- mitment to uphold the game’s heritage of charitable support and professional and meticoulous presentation of himself and the sport through his dress and conduct. 2 Men’s Golf Kelly Kraft won the 2011 U.S. Amateur championship at Erin Hills. Since 1998, four Mustangs have won the U.S. Amateur, more than any collegiate program during that span. Colt Knost won the 2007 U.S. Amateur championship in San Francisco.

It was worn by players during victories in more than 10 major golf championships. It was worn by the members of the European Ryder Cup team when it beat the U.S. in 2002.

Mickelson started the final round with a six-stroke lead over 2012 FedExCup champion Brandt Snedeker but Snedeker closed the gap to three strokes several times, most recently with a birdie at No. 16. Mickelson provided a bit of drama by almost hitting his tee shot at the drivable par-4 17 th into the water. However, the ball stopped just short of the hazard and Mickelson got the ball up and down for birdie, holing a 14-foot putt that maintained his three-stroke advantage and clinched the victory. Mickelson joined Mark Calcavecchia, Gene Littler and Arnold Palmer as the fourth three-time winner of the Waste Management Phoenix Open.
