Roland Thatcher shoots 60 at Web.com Tour BMW Charity Pro-Am

FOLLOW: iHEART | TUNEIN


Roland Thatcher closed out the BMW Charity Pro-Am in style on Sunday, shooting 11-under 60 at the Thornblade Club in Greer, S.C. With a final, 15-foot birdie putt for the sixth 59 in Web.com Tour history, Thatcher came up a revolution or two short.

To get that chance, Thatcher went out in 29, making five birdies and an eagle at the par-5 fifth. After two pars to close out the front nine, Thatcher again went on a tear on the back nine, making four birdies in the first five holes. He then birdied the 16th, the second of back-to-back par 5s. Following a par save at the par-3 17th, Thatcher got himself in position for 59 at the tough finishing hole.
