San Diego sophomore Alex Ching and Virginia sophomore Henry Smart took down Tiger’s record but only have a slice of history.
Ching and Smart tied thecompetitive course record at 6-under-par 66 on Wednesday before sundown at The Honors Course in the second round of the NCAA championship.
The record was set by Michael Sim and Ryan Blaum in the 2004 Southern Am, with Tiger Woods shooting a 67 during the 1996 NCAA championship.
“I even thought about the record, but I want to go out and have a good day (Thursday),” said Ching, who grew up surfing in Hawaii. “It was one of those days where everything clicked for me, putts fell and shots were close to the pin.”
