This Day in Golf History--August 13
On this date in 1989, Payne Stewart outlasted Mike Reid at Kemper Lakes to win his first major championship in the PGA. Stewart finished one ahead of Reid, Andy Bean and Curtis Strange. The championship started with Arnold Palmer, nearly 60 years old, shooting 68 and Tom Watson 67; both needed a PGA to complete a career Grand Slam, but neither could keep close to the lead by the end.
