It was the last major
championship of the 1900s...played on the longest course
ever to host a Grand Slam event. It attracted the strongest
international field of the year...and what it produced was
the kind of nail-biting, down-to-the-wire drama that has
made the PGA Championship golf's annual cliffhanger classic.
When 150 of the world's best professional golfers assembled
at Chicago's Medinah #3 course for the 81st PGA
Championship, the man to beat was Tiger Woods, ranked No. 1
in the world with three victories in his previous four
starts. And when the final putt hit the hole on Sunday, the
man who stroked it was Woods, winning, at age 23, the second
major professional championship of his career.
His first title - the 1997 Masters - had come by a whopping
12 strokes - but this victory was not as easy. Tiger Tames
Medinah is the story of how he triumphed over the course,
the elements, and Sergio Garcia, the brilliant young
challenger who came at him in the eleventh hour.
Tiger finished round one with birdies on both 17 and 18, but
still found himself four strokes off the pace set by Garcia,
the 19-year-old Spanish prodigy, playing in his first PGA
Championship. Then, when Garcia faded on day two, Tiger came
on, firing a 67 despite heavy rain throughout his final
holes. He followed that with a 68 on Saturday to share the
top spot with Canada's best player Mike Weir. Then on
Sunday, just when Tiger seemed to have blitzed the field
with a five-stroke lead, young Garcia rose again to
challenge him in an unforgettable battle, to the wire.
Tiger Tames Medinah captures every significant drive,
approach, pitch and putt in this, the grand finale of the
Grand Slam for 1999.
