This picture here is one that I will cherish for the rest of my life
Hard to explain but I'll try. Growing up i went to the Heritage golf
tournament every year. I was vert fortunate to get to do this. But I
developed an interest in Payne Stewart over those years. I thought he
was a great golfer and I really respected him as a person especially
as I got older and found out what he stood for. He was a greet golfer
and greater man that was killed in a airplane accident around ten
years ago I think.
The reason this picture here is so significant for me is that when I
was around ten or eleven years old I was at the Heritage and happened
to run into Payne as he was practicing. I was with my mother and I'm
not sure if I asked for an autograph but i remember Payne essentially
telling Mom to take a picture of us. I'm not sure where that picture
is but it's engrained in my mind. This picture here with Payne
Stewart's statue will stick with me as well
Even if you don't like golf, check out some information on Payne
Stewart and his legacy
