SAN DIEGO – In the days leading up to the 2008 U.S. Open, Mike Davis, who at the time was in charge of setting up the national championship, was considering the unprecedented move of grouping the world’s top 3 players – Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson and Adam Scott – for the first two rounds at Torrey Pines.
That plan was nearly derailed by a simple phone call.
“I had gotten a call from Mark Steinberg, who's Tiger's agent, everybody knew that Tiger was having an issue with the leg but nobody knew the extent,” Davis recalled Wednesday at Torrey Pines.
