On Thursday, professional golfer Collin Morikawa shot an incredible round of 61 at the Tour Championship, tying him for the lead with Justin Thomas. This remarkable feat was even more impressive considering that Morikawa had started the day nine shots behind the leader.
Morikawa’s round of 61 was the lowest score ever recorded at the Tour Championship and tied the lowest score ever recorded in a PGA Tour event. He finished his round with eight birdies and an eagle, and his performance earned him a standing ovation from the gallery.
The 23-year-old Californian has had a remarkable year, winning two tournaments and finishing in the top 10 in five of his last seven events. He is now in prime position to win the Tour Championship and take home the $15 million prize.
Morikawa’s performance on Thursday was a testament to his skill and determination. He was able to overcome a nine-shot deficit to tie for the lead, and he did it with a round of 61. It was a remarkable performance that will be remembered for years to come.
If Morikawa can continue his strong play on Friday, he could become the first golfer since Tiger Woods in 2018 to win both the Tour Championship and the FedEx Cup. It would be an incredible achievement for the young golfer, and it would cement his place among the game’s elite players.
