Special Olympics golfer a calming influence as Gary Woodland claims first major

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. — Kansas native Gary Woodland had started seven different Sundays with the PGA tournament lead and never won any of them.

On the biggest stage at the U.S. Open, he only needed to tell himself three words he learned earlier this year from a special friend, “You got this!”

The 30-foot birdie putt he sunk Sunday at Pebble Beach may have been the biggest putt of Gary Woodland`s life, but maybe not the most important one.

More likely, that putt came at a practice round earlier this year at the Waste Management Open, and he wasn’t even the one holding the putter.

“Why don’t you go ahead and make that?” he said to his playing partner.

“OK, I got this,” Amy Bockerstette responded.

Woodland agreed to play the famed stadium-style 16th hole with that Special Olympics golfer with Down Syndrome. He first offered to retrieve her ball from the bunker, but she would show him just because she’s considered special needs, she didn’t need special treatment on the course.

“That is so awesome. You are so awesome,” Woodland excaimed when Bockerstette sunk the putt.

“It was one of the most incredible things I’d ever seen. Gary’s genuine reaction, he was just blown away,” Gordon Docking said.

Docking witnessed some incredible moments as a former FOX4 sportscaster, but he’s been equally impressed by his son Blake’s achievements on the golf course.

Like Bockerstette, the former Special Olympic National Gold Medalist golfer recently turned heads at the Royals Charities Golf Tournament.

“The very first team was John Wathan’s team, and Blake knocked in a putt from 70 feet. The next was George Brett’s team and Blake knocked it in from 15 feet, and George was so excited he threw his ball down and said do it again, and Blake stepped up and knocked it again,” Docking proudly recalled.

So what’s the secret of golfers like Blake and Amy?

“He`s just ready to hit the next one. He doesn’t worry about what just happened. Let`s just go hit the ball again,” Docking said.

"I used your positive energy."

On FaceTime after his U.S. Open win, @GaryWoodland was congratulated by his No. 1 fan @AmyGolfsNDances.

Woodland called Bockerstette shortly after hoisting the trophy to explain how she helped inspire the victory.

“How are you? Did you like that today? I used your positive energy. You were awesome,” he told her in a Facetime call.

As big at the win is for Woodland, his first major, it  may prove to be even bigger for the special needs community.

“It gives people the opportunity to realize that people with special needs can do things that maybe you don`t expect them to do,” Docking said.

Gary Woodland is your U.S. Open champ. It’s good for golf.

Your newest major champion is one of the sport’s most genuinely likeable players, and he stared down the hottest player in the sport during a riveting Sunday afternoon to take the title. We’re all #GaryGuys now.

Add another deserving name to your major champion list. After a wild, up-and-down perfect major championship Sunday at Pebble Beach, Gary Woodland is your U.S. Open champion.

Playing from out front for the entire weekend, the big-hitting Kansan spoiled the Brooks Koepka threepeat, dropping this big putt on the 18th to seal his first ever major victory.

It was a dramatic duel all afternoon (or evening, for east coasters) on the Monterey Peninsula, with Brooks Koepka trying to run down Woodland to pull off that three-peat at the U.S. Open for the first time in 114 (!) years. For awhile, it looked like it might happen — and it made for fantastic golf television. Koepka charged out of the gates with a ridiculous four birdies in the first five holes to eliminate the margin between he and the final pairing of Woodland and Justin Rose. I tossed out in the middle of the run the idea that he’s easily now the most compelling draw in golf that isn’t named Tiger. We’ll unpack all of that and what a ridiculous title defense this was a bit later.

But for the most part, our big burly Midwestern boy held serve. A couple front-side birds helped Woodland keep his lead, but some small stumbles to open the back nine allowed Koepka to get within a single shot as we headed to the closing stretch. Woodland didn’t look wounded, but he at least looked beatable in a way that he hadn’t over the balance of the tournament.

Then, we hit a switch. Shortly after it seemed like Brooks might be destined for the three-peat came the defining shot of the tournament. On the winding, uphill par-5 14th and after Koepka missed an opportunity to pick up a shot on the hole, Woodland threaded a cutting right-to-left driver to give himself just enough of a green light to think about being in the go-zone on a hole where many players elect to lay up. Straight uphill with the ball above his feet, Woodland hit a drawing 3-wood that landed just 15 feet from just-above-the-bunker pin and rolled to rest just off the green.

That sealed a birdie, and a two shot lead that would release some of the pressure as he headed to the closing stretch.

If you’re not familiar as a casual fan, this isn’t some random guy by any stretch. Woodland’s a very deserving major champion, with multiple tour wins and a profile that’s had him inside the top-30 in the world for the last year or so. There’s few wins that will be more popular among players on tour, and he instantly becomes a brandable, loveable face that fans will flock to. Woodland’s story beyond that is as good as any in professional golf. The former Washburn college basketball player took a circuitous route to a golf career, he’s been through some tough personal adversity, and is generally just an extremely likeable guy. I’m all in on becoming a #GaryGuy. So is Pat Mahomes. This is a good win for golf.

Congrats!! That’s big time! @GaryWoodland

Now, we’ll turn our attention overseas to Portrush — where the Open Championship will wrap up the major season for the first time in modern history.

But for now, it’s a Gary party in Topeka.
