Duffy Waldorf Misses Chance for 59 in Toshiba Classic

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. — Duffy Waldorf missed a chance to shoot the second 59 in Champions Tour history Saturday, parring the final two holes for an 11-under 60 in the Toshiba Classic.

Waldorf missed a 10-foot birdie putt on the par-5 18th, coming up short and right.

"It was a trickier putt than I wanted," Waldorf said. "I didn't hit the putt hard enough. I had been reaching the hole all day, so I didn't think that would be a problem."

He drove behind a tree into the left rough on the closing hole, statistically the easiest hole at Newport Beach Country Club, and hooked a hybrid approach through the green and into the back bunker.
