Shane Lowry came within millimetres of becoming the first golfer to shoot a 61 in men's Major championship history after a stunning third-round display at the PGA Championship.
Lowry started the day eight shots back of the lead but surged into contention after a bogey-free round which featured nine birdies. The Irishman needed a birdie at the par-5 18th for a place in golf's history books but saw his effort drift just left of the hole.
