Chip Beck Shoots 59

Thirteen years ago today Chip Beck shot a 59 at the Las Vegas Invitational. Beck shot a 29-30, 13 under par. This round matched Al Geiberger's second round 59 at the 1977 Memphis Classic as only the second sub-60 round in PGA Tour history.

Of course a third player, David Duval, joined this elite club in 1999. David shot a 59 at the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic enroute to victory. It was reported that David also shot a 59 a few months ago on the back nine at Whistling Straits while playing a practice round.
