What constitutes a great round of golf? There have been some truly remarkable ones recorded in recent times: a 57 from Cristobal del Solar in a Korn Ferry Tour event; a 58 from Bryson DeChambeau at LIV Golf Greenbrier; and Joaquin Niemann went sub 60 at LIV Golf Mayakoba. The list goes on.
Whilst there’s no denying that these three super low ones were anything but remarkable, as was Jim Furyk’s 58 at the 2016 Travelers Championship, the greatest ever rounds can’t just be defined as the lowest. Absolutely not. In fact, one of the best rounds ever compiled was a 71 that didn’t contain one single birdie.
