GOLF.GARA.Herbert emulates Millbrook 62 to soar at Royal Birkdale
With an eight-under-par 62 in round two of the 154th Open Championship at Royal Birkdale, the Australian equalled the all-time low round in the 166-year history of men’s Major championship golf. A fabulous feat worth celebrating.
While justifiably proud of his achievement, Herbert was also left to ponder on a final-hole bogey that denied him the chance to create history with a first-ever 61 at the very highest level of the game.
“I’m absolutely disappointed (not to shoot 61), and at the same time, so proud of today,” said Herbert, whose 62 was emulated by American Sam Burns less than an hour later.
