POLICY WIRE — City, Country — Australian golfer Lucas Herbert experienced a mixture of triumph and disappointment as he and American Sam Burns tied a major record at a recent tournament. However, a bogey on the final hole cost Herbert the opportunity to set a new record.
Herbert — and Burns both finished with scores that matched a long-standing major record. Despite the impressive feat, Herbert’s bogey at the last moment prevented him from achieving a historic new mark.
“It’s a bit of a mixed feeling,” Herbert said after the round. “Obviously, it’s great to be part of such a record, but it’s tough to take that bogey on the last hole.”
Burns, who remained composed throughout the tournament, expressed his congratulations to Herbert. “It’s an incredible achievement for both of us. Lucas played exceptionally well, — and it’s a shame about the last hole, but that’s golf,” Burns remarked.
