He missed a 9-foot birdie on the ninth hole, his last of the day, to shoot 59.
Will Zalatoris held the previous course record, a second-round 61 at the 2021 Sanderson Farms. Skinns’ previous career low on the PGA TOUR was a 62 in the first round of this year’s RBC Canadian Open.
The Englishman rode an impressive putting performance to the standout round. Skinns made 12 birdies and no bogeys on Thursday, gaining more than four shots on the greens. Six of his 12 birdies came from outside 10 feet. The highlight was a 52-foot birdie Skinns made on the par-4 seventh hole.
Skinns began his day on the back nine and birdied his opening two holes, holing a 10-footer on the 10th and an 18-footer on the 11th. He made par on the next two holes before reeling off four straight birdies to open in 6-under 30.
