In the opening round of the 2016 Ellie Mae Classic, Stephan Jaeger's solid approach leaves himself a 10-foot putt for birdie on the par-5 9th hole and a round of 58.

Wow.

As Woody would say "did he have a chance at a 57"?. Great score. Would have been fun to watch.

Still, this is a long way from Kim Jong-Il's 34. That score will never be beaten.

He did.  3 putt par at the par 5 3rd hole...

Wow.  58.  Hard to imagine.  Nicely done.  Now it's happened on Web.com and on the Japan tour.  I wonder if we'll ever see it on the PGA Tour.

Ha ha, I as thinking about it a few days ago in a different context. I think usually he shoots 18. Must be off on that day.

I've done that twice! Once on the front nine and once on the back!

What's the big deal? I shoot 58 every round
