RE: Yesterday I witnessed perhaps the single greatest sporting spectacle I have ever seen!

in #sports8 years ago

Greatest moment I have personallywitnessed... my parents used to live in the Phoenix area and were big golf nuts. I was out there visiting in March of 2001, and of course we headed off to an LPGA event going on that weekend.

As it happened, I was following Swedish golfer Annika Sörenstam as she went on a spree of making birdies on 12 of the next 13, en route to the first 59 ever carded by a female pro golfer (only 3 by men, at the time) in an official event, and her birdie putt for 58 was the only chance anyone had ever had for a 58.

Wow that is amazing... I remember when she carded that 59, it was big news! That is amazing that you had the opportunity to witness it in person. Thanks for sharing such a neat experience! :)
