Webb Simpson Fires Career-Best 61 at Greenbrier
6 years agoWebb Simpson flirted with a 59 Thursday in the opening round of A Military Tribute at the Greenbrier. Simpson carded an impressive seven birdies and one eagle and went to the last two holes needing a birdie-birdie finish to shoot the mythical 59. He was only able to manage pars coming in for a career-low score of 61. Simpson's nine-under par was good enough to lead the tournament by two shots after the first-round action came to a close. His performance Thursday was reminiscent of his dominant play earlier this year at the Players Championship, which Simpson won in runaway fashion.
