Payne Stewart (January 30, 1957 – October 25, 1999) was an American professional golfer who won eleven PGA Tour events, including three major championships in his career. Stewart gained his first major title at the 1989 PGA Championship. He won the 1991 U.S. Open after a playoff against Scott Simpson. At the 1999 U.S. Open held at Pinehurst Resort Course No. 2, Stewart captured his third major title after holing a 15-foot par putt on the final hole for a one stroke victory ahead of runner-up Phil Mickelson.

Four months later on Oct. 25, 1999, Stewart died in a plane crash. Stewart was 42 years old.

This commemorative ball marker celebrates Payne's two U.S. Open Championships in 1991 and 1999. A copper encasing surrounds a 1999 nickel and the flip side of the coin features one of our favorite Payne Stewart quotes:"A Bad Attitude is Worse Than a Bad Swing".
Each ball marker measures 1.5" and comes in a protective, drawstring pouch.
