Gibson's 55: No Range Warmup, Played The Ball Down

Mike Baldwin catches up with Rhein Gibson--55 shooter from the Golfweek Tour--who has been busy playing and not talking much about the round. But he did chat it up with Baldwin and revealed that there was no pre-round warm-up and despite mudballs, there was no lifting, cleaning and cheating.

The mind-boggling score, oddly enough, was posted on a day Gibson didn’t get to warm up on the driving range, which was closed due to heavy rains the previous night.

“The ball didn’t roll much,” Munson said. “Several times we had mud on our balls. We played it down. We didn’t pick and clean it. It produced some unpredictable shots. The key was his putting.”

Gibson chipped in for an eagle on No. 13, a par 5. He hit 16 greens in regulation, and he logged only 19 putts.

Gibson also talks about how tough it is to get through Q-school to the PGA Tour. Problem solved!
