He started on the 10th hole today. Shot 29 on the front, then went par - double bogey - Eagle to get back to even for the back 9 (actually the front 9, but his back 9 )
- then proceeds to finish up the round by shooting 6 consecutive birdies for the first ever 59 recorded on the European Tours.
He´s now at -20 after 2 days and has broken all kinds of records.
Pretty impressive (and amazing)!!!
A 59 with a double bogey!! That's quite the round!!
Although, to be fair, a touch over 6500 yards is quite short by the tour standards for men. Still, that shouldn't detract too much from the great performance.
He won the tournament by 1 shot. He went 63, 59, 74, 69. Not too shabby.
Even if the course isn't that difficult you still have to get the ball in the hole. Though 59 with a double is just insane. So is the fact he shot 122 for the first 2 rounds
