PGA National’s Champion Course has a reputation for being one of the toughest tests in golf, but that doesn’t mean it’s impossible to shoot low scores. In fact, the course has seen its fair share of impressive rounds over the years, including Tiger Woods’s final-round 62 at the 2012 Honda Classic. However, the course record is actually held by Brian Harman, who shot an incredible 61 in the same tournament. Harman’s round was a masterclass, and he would have broken 60 had he made a five-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole.
Harman’s record-breaking round was all the more impressive given that it eclipsed the previous course record, set by Davis Love III just a day earlier, by three shots. What’s more, it would take nine years for another player to match Harman’s score, a testament to just how special his round was. Despite not winning the tournament, Harman’s 61 will always be remembered as one of the greatest rounds in PGA National’s history. Recently, young golfer Jake Knapp also showed what he’s made of by breaking the course record at PGA National with an unbelievable 59.
