What was billed as the "People's Open" came down to one person. Tiger Woods captured the U.S. Open at Bethpage Black in 2002 and became the first player since Jack Nicklaus in 1972 to win the first two major championships in a year. His rivals wilted at Augusta National. They battled at Bethpage Black. It didn't matter. Woods showed his power and skill in reaching the 13th green with a 2-iron from 263 yards for a birdie that smothered his final challenge. And he had the mental toughness, as always, to block out everything around him except the shiny trophy waiting for him at the end.
