Sole leader after his round.

That is some serious golf in those last 15

But whats the length

Par is arbitrary

Hell last week was par 70 but the course was still 7,316 yards

Plenty long enough to where 59 is still absolutely legit

I don’t think he had a putt outside 10 feet on the back 9. Dude was dialed in.

People still see him dicking around a shitty muni in Nashville called McCabe, which is a course he played growing up here.

Know lots of people that know him/hung out with him here and its pretty unanimous that he's a really good dude. Like to see good guys do well on tour.

Same here. That commercial with him and Tom Watson still makes me laugh my arse off.

course played 6,969 yds today. the course could be playing 3,969 yds and I ain't carding a 59. I laugh at the 70 vs 72 debate. A 59 is a freaking 59, period.

Dude was dialed. Real nice to watch someone play with some pace in their game too.

I card a 59 every time I play golf.


And then I start the back 9.

Yes, I hate it that the sports media makes a big deal out of a 59 on a par 70. That is no better than a 61 that has been shot many times. The should make the greatness benchmark at -13 or -14 (whatever the record is) for 18 holes and then its apples and apples...

There are less birdie opportunities on a par 70. Also, it’s not like there are constantly sub 60 rounds being shot

Yeah, but you’ve now got a new pussy crushing hat, so it could happen.

Course is a par 72 for members. They just convert two par 5s.
