Koepka ties course record at TPC Sawgrass with 9-under 63

Brooks Koepka fired a 9-under 63 to tie the course record at TPC Sawgrass on Sunday in a round highlighted by an albatross on the par-5 16th.

The 28-year-old opened with a 4-under 32 on the front nine, but it wasn't until the 16th hole that the round became special.

After a 308-yard drive on the par-5 16th, Koepka was left with 208 yards to the hole. Then this happened:

His deuce was the second ever on the 16th hole at TPC Sawgrass. Rafael Cabrera-Bello recorded the first albatross on the hole in last year's Players Championship.

Koepka then made his sixth birdie of the day on the iconic par-3 17th after sticking his tee shot to within 4 feet.

The 2017 U.S. Open champion entered the day at 2-under in a tie for 63rd. When his final round ended, he sat in a tie for third.
