Good hints- off those clues I will go with Peter Jacobsen...

OFC

 

[dukiejay]

Not Jacobsen, either.

Maybe this is harder than I thought, although I know it’s one of the more iconic calls ever.

Tiger made the putt trailing Kenny Perry by three shots on the famous 17th hole (island green) at Sawgrass.

We'll stick with golf.

Phil Michelson grew up in San Diego before heading off to ASU for college.

While in HS, Phil had a teammate I think 3 years his junior who later in life became famous for reason other than golf. His face was on television everyday around Christmas, 2002.

Who was he? What is he infamous for?

I think I know it. I'm from the Chicago area, and am familiar with the guy Peterson, who murdered his wife, with the case getting national attention. It was reported that he was a classmate or teammate of Mickleson in high school. Pretty sure his first name is Scott?
