I was just watching some episodes of Two and a Half Men, so my reaction is Holy Mother of God.  That is an impressive round

I just looked and if they played the "Gold-L" tees the rating is 72.3 and the slope is 126 .  60 is impressive on any course but given 72.3 for a scratch golfer going 60 is outstanding in my mind.  Link to score card is below.

FWIW there are no such tees anymore:

Green-W are 72.1/126, so probably those tees.

The local sportscaster posted the card on twitter, it appears it was the red tees so i guess 68.6/121,  She is a long hitter from what I understand so I assume this is a pretty short setup for her (4,891 yds).  I don't know much about girl's golf though.  But it does make me want to try those tees to see what I would shoot....not 60 😀.

I know I could not do that from any of the tee boxes and for a HS Athlete, a sophomore at that, to accomplish it is impressive.  I'll venture a guess the collegiate scouts will be watching her if they were not already doing so.

That's pretty much the distance of many HS tournaments. I wondered if they might not play those tees since she did hit 7I into the last, and 441 felt a bit long for that… 😉
