Fifty years ago at the 1973 U.S. Open, Johnny Miller famously shot a Sunday 63 to win at Oakmont and set the record for the lowest round ever in a major championship. On Thursday, Rickie Fowler made history at Los Angeles Country Club by becoming the first golfer to card a 62 at a U.S. Open and tied Brendan Grace’s 62 in the 2017 Open Championship at Royal Birkdale. Shortly after Fowler signed his card, Xander Schuaffele finished his first round at the 2023 U.S. Open with a 62 to share the early lead.
