{{Short description|none}} {{Redirect|Perfect round|the measure of the shape of a round object|Sphericity}} {{use mdy dates|date=September 2019}} This article lists the lowest recorded rounds in golf. In professional competition, a round of 59 or less is regarded as a significant achievement.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.pgatour.com/news/2018/08/16/shoot-score-59-58-pga-tour-history.html |title=Sub-60 rounds in PGA Tour history |publisher=PGA Tour |date=16 August 2018}}</ref> In men's major championships the lowest rounds are 62 by Branden Grace at the 2017 Open Championship, by Rickie Fowler and Xander Schauffele at the 2023 U.S. Open, and by Xander Schauffele and Shane Lowry at the 2024 PGA Championship. The lowest officially recorded round is 55 by Rhein Gibson in 2012. In women's major championships the lowest round is 61, held jointly by Leona Maguire, Lee Jeong-eun and Kim Hyo-joo, all at the Evian Championship.
==Lowest rounds of golf== The lowest officially recorded round of golf is 55 by Rhein Gibson (12 birdies, two eagles, on a par 71) on May 12, 2012, at River Oaks Golf Club in Edmond, Oklahoma. This score is recognized by the Guinness World Records.<ref name=":0">{{cite web |url=http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/5000/lowest-golf-score-18-holes-(male) |title=Lowest golf score 18 holes (male) |publisher=Guinness World Records |access-date=2014-07-22}}</ref>
Three other rounds of 55 are documented, but these are commonly discounted due to the length of the course or the nature of the round.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://golf.about.com/od/faqs/f/lowestscore.htm |title=What Is the Lowest 18-Hole Golf Score Ever Recorded? |publisher=About.com |first=Brent |last=Kelley |access-date=2014-07-22 |archive-date=July 12, 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140712182457/http://golf.about.com/od/faqs/f/lowestscore.htm |url-status=dead }}</ref> On August 27, 2020, another was added, as Alexander Hughes shot a 55 in Jenks, Oklahoma, within 100 miles of where Gibson had his best day.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://golf.com/news/how-this-golfer-incredibly-shot-guinness-world-record-16-under-55/ |title=How this golfer incredibly shot a Guinness world-record 16-under 55 |website=Golf.com |first=Nick |last=Piastowski |date=August 28, 2020 |access-date=2020-08-31}}</ref>
Possibly the lowest documented round in competitive golf is 57, achieved by (among others) Bobby Wyatt in the 2010 Alabama Boys Junior Championship, and Alex Ross in the 2019 Dogwood Invitational. Ross's round was 15-under-par for the Druid Hills Golf Club course in Atlanta, and included 13 birdies and one eagle.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.ncaa.com/news/golf-men/article/2019-06-07/davidsons-alex-ross-makes-golf-history-absurd-57-amateur-event |title=Davidson's Alex Ross makes golf history with absurd 57 at amateur event |website=National Collegiate Athletic Association |date=June 7, 2019 |access-date=February 5, 2020}}</ref> More recently, LIV Golfer and YouTube influencer Bryson DeChambeau shot a 58 on the par 70 course at LIV Golf Greenbrier on August 6, 2023.

==Perfect round== A '''perfect round''' is a round of eighteen holes where all holes were played on average at one under par (average of birdie on every hole) resulting in a score of 55 on a par 73 course, 54 on a par 72 course, 53 on a par 71 course, and 52 on a par 70 course.{{cn|date=June 2019}}
There is a philosophy popularized by Pia Nilsson's '''Vision 54''' that concentrates on achieving the perfect round, the basic ideology being that striving for perfection results in better scores even if the goal is not met.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.lpga.com/content_1.aspx?mid=4&pid=78|title=Ever-busy, multi-talented Nilsson dedicates time to teaching, traveling, forming friendships.|publisher=LPGA|date=February 3, 2003|access-date=2010-05-04}}</ref> Cecilia Ekelundh, who formerly played on the Ladies European Tour, did keep the perfect round on her mind by drawing a 54 on the ball she played in competition.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ladieseuropeantour.com/content/let_content_interview.php?Id=4442 |title=Cecilia Ekelundh: What's In The Bag? |publisher=Ladies European Tour |first=Bethan |last=Cutler |date=June 10, 2004 |access-date=2010-05-04 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070930201229/http://www.ladieseuropeantour.com/content/let_content_interview.php?Id=4442 |archive-date=2007-09-30 }}</ref>
