Today Paul Goydos joined an illustrious club. He became only the 4th person in PGA history to record a 59 in a competitive round. And it couldn’t have happened to a nicer and funnier guy. Goydos joins David Duval (1999), Al Geiberger (1977), and Chip Beck (1991), as the only people to have shot 59.
