Jim Furyk shoots all-time PGA Tour record 58
Jim Furyk shot 58 on Sunday at the Travelers Championship, the lowest round in PGA Tour history. After making the turn in 27 (he holed out from 135 yards for eagle on the third hole), Furyk recorded birdies at Nos. 10, 11, 12 and 16 to shoot 12-under par on the par-70 course.
Since Al Geiberger shot the first-ever 59 on the PGA Tour in 1977, more than 600,000 rounds have been played on the PGA Tour, as per Golf Channel’s live telecast. That mark had since been tied by Chip Beck (1991 Las Vegas Invitational), David Duval (1999 Bob Hope Classic), Paul Goydos (2010 John Deere Classic), Stuart Appleby (2010 Greenbrier Classic), and most recently, Furyk himself at the BMW Championship in 2013.
History!
Jim Furyk shoots 58!
It’s the lowest round in PGA TOUR history.
Incredible. https://t.co/mzggwHU6tT

After Furyk’s 58 on Sunday, however, the all-time record has been broken.
He began the final round of the Travelers Championship at 1-over, 16 shots behind 54-hole leader Daniel Berger. Furyk finished the week at 11-under, and although he most likely will not come away with a victory, he did cement himself in PGA Tour history.

GolfWRX is on site this week at the Memorial Tournament, with both Alistair Cameron and Tour Photographer Greg Moore on the ground in Dublin, Ohio, where a strong field is assembled to pay homage to the Golden Bear.
In addition to WITB galleries, we’ve already been treated to an in-hand look at Tommy Fleetwood’s new TaylorMade Spider putters.

Around the world, the golf wheel spun this final week in May of 2026. From New Jersey to Austria, with stops in Korea, Texas, and North Carolina (don’t let me route your next trip) the world’s finest put their golf games on display. There were three playoffs, some known commodities and some new talent. It was the sort of week that we hope to have at this point in the seasons. June and July afford double-digit major events, and perhaps, one of this week’s champions will use this success as a springboard to new heights. Time to run it all down, tech style, in this week’s Tour Tech Rundown.

PGA Tour @ Charles Schwab Challenge: Heroic Henley denies Cole
Eric Cole did nearly everything that a fellow can do, to secure a first PGA Tour title. He stayed one shot clear of Ryder Cup player Ben Griffin. He kept US Open champion Gary Woodland and wunderkind Michael Brennan two shots distant. He posted 70 on day four to reach twelve under par. And then, Russell Henley revealed his Dr. Strange cloak. Henley made 47 feet of birdie putts on holes 16, 17, and 18, to jump from minus-nine to twelve-deep, and secured a spot in a playoff with Cole. The duo returned to the final tee, and put on a stripe show.
Both golfers found the fairway off the tee, and Henley improved on his regulation play with an approach to four feet. Cole did himself proud, tucking an iron to a dozen feet, but he was unable to convert the putt for three. Henley is one of the best putters on tour, and he proved it once more by draining a putt for a fourth consecutive birdie, and a sixth PGA Tour title. For Eric Cole, that first victory should come, and soon. He has done everything necessary to earn the chalice lift.

LPGA @ Shoprite LPGA: Welcome back, Celine!
Soo Bin Joo had her eyes on a maiden LPGA title. She held the lead after two rounds, then hit a red light at the intersection of can-I and how-To. Joo posted plus-two on day three in New Jersey, and dropped to a T4 finish, which was still a career-best for the young Korean golfer. Instead of a new face, a familiar face returned to the top of the podium.
Celine Boutier was the It Girl in 2023. She collected four victories, including a major title at Evian. Boutier reached world number one status, then simply faded into the background. No wins came her way over the next 30 months. On Sunday, she collected LPGA victory number seven, at the same trace as LPGA victory number two.
Day three saw Boutier manage the windswept Seaview Bay course with six birdies and a bogey. She was challenged in the end by Thailand’s Arpichaya Yubol, who signed for a 66 of her own. Yubol came up one shot shy of the top ladder rung. Finishing in third place at -7, two back of the winner, was Ireland’s Lauren Walsh.

DP World Tour @ Austrian Alpine: KK? KK!
Kota Kaneko has a rhythmic name. It has strong vowels and a run of voiceless stops in its crunchy K sounds. On Sunday in Austria, Kaneko put a stop to a challenge from Portugal’s Ricardo Gouveia and everyone else, and claimed a first-ever title on the DP World Tour. Gouveia did well to reach 16-under par over four days, but Kaneko held firm, two shots in the clear.
Davis Bryant of the USA also forged a strong challenge for the win. He ended in a tie with Gouveia for second place. Kaneko began and finished his final round in a bit of a malaise, but he caught fire midway through. Birdies at 10, 12, and 13 provided the necessary cushion to cruise to the finish line without breaking a serious sweat.
Kaneko’s Suitcase

Korn Ferry Tour @ UNC Health Championship: Improbably Alvaro
Alvaro Ortiz may have had a bit of scare on the outward nine on Sunday, but he came through in clutch fashion in the end. Ortiz began the day bogey-double, and added another double bogey at the 11th hole. He was mired in a downward trend, spiraling away from the top of the leader’s board. Ortiz found hope at the 14th, where his first birdie of the day tumbled home. Inspired, he closed with birdies and 17 and 18 to catch Ross Steelman at 10-under par, and the duo returned to the 18th deck for overtime.
The extra session concluded in brief time. Ortiz, buoyed by his newly-retrieved confidence, hit the fairway with driver, then approached to six feet and drained the putt. Gobsmacked, Steelman could do little more than smile and applaud, as his run at the top came to a close. The victory was the first for Ortiz on the KFT, and will implant him squarely in the chase for a PGA Tour promotion.

LIV @ Korea: Me llamo Joaquin
Chile’s Joaquin Niemann had been away from the LIV winner’s circle throughout all of 2026. This week in Korea, he reminded us that he is still a force to consider. Niemann chased down Taylor Gooch over the closing holes at Asiad Country Club, then claimed victory with a hole-one birdie in extra time. Bryson DeChambeau claimed solo third, one shot in arrears at minus-eleven. Dustin Johnson finished on fourth, one putt farther back.

This round deserves praise, an incredible feat that the best in the world can only dream of. Shooting 12 under is 14 shots better than my best score ever and saying I am impressed is an understatement. Furyk is not a young man and to pull this incredible score gives hope to a lot of other golfers out there.
With all that being said, some of the people posting in the comments appear to be speaking negatively; however, I am leaning towards their side. I feel highlighting the 58 is just to grab media attention after all, 12 under par is something that has been done 9 times so far on the PGA Tour and 3 of the “59’s” were actually 13 under par. Sure, there has never been a 58 carded on tour before Furyk’s round, but there were other scores that matched or beat the under par number. To use an analogy, driving 55mph on the highway is fine, driving 55mph in a 25 is not. We shouldn’t be focusing on the speed limit, i.e. the “58” we should be focusing on the fact that the driver was going 30mph over the limit i.e. the 12 under par. Context is important when dealing with a record of this caliber.

Maybe you have not paid attention to his miserable performances in the last few team competitions. Ryder Cup captain’s pick? Not if the US wants to win.

The course is a 72.7, regardless of what the tournament officials want to make par. If one wants to compare course rating for the 59s versus this 58 – fair enough, but otherwise – par is a made up number, irrelevant to one’s actual score.

Aug 7, 2016 at 7:01 pm
If you take the 2 longerest par 4 and play them as par 5 like the members do it would have been still a 58 but he would have been 14 under!

What a classless and clueless bunch. “Only a par 70”? Are you kidding? What a waste of electricity. Detract all you want, but Nicklaus and Tiger didn’t manage this is a par 70, just like everyone else in a PGA Tour event ever. If there was world peace, you’d find plenty of negative reactions in comments sections. Morons.

Par 72 is two more par 5’s , he wouldnt have birdied atleast one or maybe both? For 58 or 59. Either way it is 58. All you d***heads saying it was a par 70 are still hoping to crack 90. Just a bunch of envious losers
