Think shooting 59 is tough? How about shooting 59 on two consecutive days.
That’s exactly what Australian professional golfer Peter Wilson did this past weekend. The 45-year-old journeyman, who turned pro in 2002 and is currently ranked No. 881 in the Official World Golf Ranking, cracked the sub-60 threshold on both Saturday and Sunday at Lang Lang Golf Club, a 6,001-yard, par-70 layout in Victoria, according to the PGA Tour of Australasia, of which Wilson is a member.
Wilson’s first 11-under round featured just two birdies and an eagle on the front nine before Wilson caught fire, birdieing each of his last seven holes.
