Significant Actual U.S. Open Scorecard

of Tiger Woods

        Presented here is one of the earliest Tiger Woods signed scorecards ever offered. At the U.S. Open each year, the defending U.S. Open Champion is always paired with the reigning U.S. Amateur Champion for the first two rounds of the event. At the 1996 U.S. Open, this tradition paired Corey Pavin with a young Tiger Woods.

        This is Corey Pavin's actual scorecard from that historic pairing with a 20 year old Tiger Woods. And if it is even possible to make this scorecard more significant, keep in mind that the player's do not keep their own scores - they keep the score of their competitor. So, with the exception of Pavin's signature and the USGA notes on the top right corner, everything on this scorecard was written by Tiger Woods himself. This scorecard is from the first round of the 1996 U.S. Open, which was held at Oakland Hills, which is only the second full round that Tiger ever played in a U.S. Open! Now that's history!
