At the 2000 U.S. Open<\/a> at Pebble Beach, Tiger Woods<\/a> put on a show for the ages, a performance Phil Mickelson<\/a> would later call the greatest in history. In his 100th tournament as a professional, Woods dominated the 100th edition of the U.S. Open, winning by a record 15 shots. But the record-breaking victory almost never happened as Woods nearly ran out of balls during the second round. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following a first-round 65, which gave him a one-shot lead over Miguel Angel Jimenez, Tiger Woods began to pull away from the pack on day two. However, as weather played a major factor at the 2000 U.S. Open, Woods was only able to complete 12 holes of his second round on Friday, closing his day with a 30-foot birdie that sent the crowd into a frenzy as he gave his signature fist pump. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the long birdie to close his day, Tiger wasn't happy with how he'd putted that day and decided to practice in his hotel room, which could have led to what would have been the most talked-about DQ in the history of the sport. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
