Payne Stewart birdied four of the last five holes, shooting a 31 over the final nine, to edge runners-up Mike Reid, Curtis Strange and Andy Bean, and win his first major title. Reid, who led the 71st PGA Championship until the finishing holes, bogeyed 16, double-bogeyed 17 and missed an 8-foot birdie putt on 18. Windless playing conditions at Kemper Lakes, a public golf facility, helped produce holes-in-one by Mark O'Meara, Lanny Wadkins, Scott Hoch and Davis Love III. The four aces tied a PGA Championship record established in 1988.
