At the John Deere Classic, Sepp Straka nearly made history by almost becoming the 12th player to shoot a 59 on the PGA Tour. Standing on the 18th tee, he would need a birdie for the magical number but, on impact, the Austrian knew he had pulled his shot left into the water.
Failing to make an up-and-down, the 30-year-old carded a final round 62 to sit at 21-under-par, with many players still out on the course at TPC Deere Run. Obviously, he would have to hang around but, after no-one could get close to his clubhouse total, the trophy was Straka's, who secured a second PGA Tour title.
