John Catlin Sets Asian Tour Record with Historic 59 Score

John Catlin becomes the first golfer to shoot a 59 in Asian Tour history, marking a significant comeback amidst struggles.

John Catlin shot an 11-under 59 at the International Series Macau, becoming the first player in Asian Tour history to break 60.
The historic round included a dramatic 20-foot eagle putt on the 18th hole, securing Catlin's record-setting score.
Catlin's performance puts him two shots ahead of Jason Kokrak going into the final round, despite recent challenges in his career.
The 33-year-old's achievement follows a period of difficulty, including losing his DP World Tour card and struggling on the course.
Catlin's 59 is part of a rare group of sub-60 rounds in professional golf this year, joining players like Joaquin Niemann.
