Golf world reacts to Furyk's record 58
Golf's wild.
Jim Furyk proved that and more Sunday, when he shot the first 58 in PGA Tour history at the Travelers Championship.
His fellow Tour pros chimed in, obviously:
"I hit the ball poorly yesterday." Today Jim Furyk shoots 58. What a strange game this is!

Special round of golf there from Furyk. Cool to see how emotional he was. Golf is hard and days like that don't happen often. #58

Those who don't play the game for a living were blown away, too:
Furyk's round is living proof that whatever YOUR swing is.... stick with it and trust it. Not everyone has to hit it the same way #58

Legit got chills when that putt went in. 613,000 rounds on tour and that's the best ever. Congrats to Jim Furyk. Wow.
