Ex Ryder Cup player Nicholas Colsaerts narrowly missed out on shooting the first 59 on the Eurpoean Tour.
Playing in the Portugal Masters at the Oceånico Victoria Golf Club, the Belgian's 18 ft birdie putt agonisingly shaved the left-hand lip on the 18th to fall short of the elusive feat by a single stroke. No player has yet broken 60 in the 42-year history of The European Tour, but Colsaerts looked well on his way to change all that after he followed seven birdies with eagles at the 15th and 17th.
Coming up the 18th Colsaerts was able to share a joke with Branden Grace, who shot 60 at Kingsbarns in the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship two years ago.
"When I made eagle on 15, I knew then that if I birdied the last three, that would have been 59," Colsaerts said.
"So I parred 16 and then walking down the fairway on 17, I said to my caddie after I hit a good drive, 'it's 59 or nothing'."
Re-living his putt on the 18th, Colsaerts added: "I hit a good drive. It's too bad it (the putt) just shaved the edge.
"I thought it was going to be slightly left to right at the end and it kind of went straight and basically just left it hanging. Too bad, I thought it was a pretty good effort, especially with these dark clouds."
