Ariya and Moriya Jutanugarn of Thailand combined for an 11-under 59 Thursday to take the second-round lead at the Dow Great Lakes Bay Invitational, an LPGA Tour team event at Midland Country Club in Midland, Mich.
Playing the round under a best-ball format, the sisters made six birdies on the front nine and five more on the back, including No. 18, to score golf s hallowed number.
In the tournament s debutant year in 2019, one round of 58 and one 59 were scored during best ball, so Thursday s will not be counted as an official 59. Annika Sorenstam is responsible for the LPGA s only stroke-play 59 at a tournament in 2001.
