Do we have the next Tiger Woods on our hands? I won’t go as far as to say that quite yet, but 18-year-old Ryo Ishikawa is making a name for himself very quickly.
Ishikawa finished today’s major at The Crowns with a final round of 58. No, I didn’t accidently hit 5 instead of 6.
Dude shot 12-under with birdies on his first 9 of 11 holes to climb the field and win the tourney. He went into the final round six strokes back and finished winning by five!
Some pro golfers do not even shoot 12 under in four rounds, let alone one.
As a casual golfer I know i’m ready to throw a party anytime I get one birdie and this guy is out there putting and chipping in 12 of them. Ryo has already won six tournaments on the Japan tour previous to this one and is looking to add to his collection of extremely over-sized paychecks.
Today’s round breaks the old record of 59 set by David Duval in 1999.
While Duval shot his 59 on a par 72, Ishikawa’s was shot on a par 70 course. So Duval’s is still a little more impressive to me, but the fact that he is only 18 should be scaring the hell out of the old timers, including Tiger.
