A First In Golf Hist ory?

Amateur Scores Second 58 Of His Life

Torey Edwards was flirting with the unthinkable in golf and his friends weren?t giving him any breaks. The 38-year-old Southern Californian shot a 14-under-par 58 in 2008 when he was still attempting to make it on the pro mini-tours. Twelve years later, in a sanctioned Southern California Golf Association Scratch League event, Edwards was 9-under with three holes to play on the par-70 Annandale Golf Club.
