Lightning storm suspends BMW Championship

OWINGS MILLS.

The width of the field and the softness of the grass in Caves Valley facilitated the journey of Bryson DeChambeau this friday in the BMW Championship. In contrast, other golfers could not even finish the round, due to thunderstorm that hit the field.

DeChambeau took advantage of the field conditions, which was close to paying him a record. With the 8 iron he made an incredible approach shot to the 16th hole, par five.

The ball approached the edge of the green, before reversing down a slope and falling just two feet away, resulting in an eagle. After that, DeChambeau needed two birdies on the final two holes to equal the PGA Tour record., which is 58.

He missed 15 feet on 17. Missed a six-foot putt on 18 and missed the opportunity to join the exclusive club of 12 golfers who have handed out cards under 60 in the history of the Tour.

He had to settle for 60, the best score of his career. Had a one-hit advantage over Patrick Cantlay, when the thunderstorms forced to suspend the second round.
