This Day in Golf History: February 10

On Thursday of this week, Nick Taylor of Canada shot a 60 at the WM Phoenix Open. He was two days off from quite a coincidence. On this date in 1951, Al Bosch is credited with shooting the first round of 60 on the PGA Tour, during the third round of the Texas Open. Also on today's date, it's World Golf Hall of Fame member Greg Norman's 69th birthday. The two-time major winner was born in Queensland, Australia. Another birthday today is LPGA star Lexi Thompson, the ANA Inspiration winner, who was born in 1995 in Coral Springs, Florida. She turned professional at age 15 in June 2010.
