“It’s amazing. This game can tease you. You’re ready to pack it in, and then the game throws a 61 at you. And then you don’t know what the hell to do.”

Jimmy Walker posted a 62 playing "boring" golf at Sedgefield, but how about Tim Herron's 16-shot turnaround in round two, narrowly missing a course record 60?

Jeff Mills reports.

“I missed a couple on the front,” Herron said. “I missed about a 5-footer straight down the hill (on the 9th hole). I had a good chance at 59. But you didn’t know that after nine holes. I was just trying to make some putts and gain some confidence.”

“I went to the green with a long putter today, and it just didn’t feel right,” Herron said. “So I went back to the one I started with yesterday. Off the fringe I had about five three-putts yesterday. So I didn’t really have anything to lose today.”

Herron’s two-ball putter heated up on Sedgefield’s back nine Friday, when he made six birdies – including five in a row starting on the 13th hole.
