Amateur Scores Second 58 Of His Life
Torey Edwards was flirting with the unthinkable in golf and his friends weren?t giving him any breaks. The 38-year-old Southern Californian shot a 14-under-par 58 in 2008 when he was still attempting to make it on the pro mini-tours. Twelve years later, in a sanctioned Southern California Golf Association Scratch League event, Edwards was 9-under with three holes to play on the par-70 Annandale Golf Club. INSIDE GOLF
