Final round

Sunday, August 18, 2002

In a dramatic final round, Woods birdied each of the last four holes to post a 9-under clubhouse score. Beem, in the final group behind Woods, sank a 35-foot (11 m) birdie putt on the 16th hole to maintain a two-shot margin with two holes to play. After a par 3 at the 17th, Beem was on the green at the par-4 18th in two shots. With the luxury of three putts to win the title by one stroke, Beem bogeyed and celebrated.[2][3] Third round leader Justin Leonard shot 77 (+5) to finish six strokes back, in a tie for fourth.
