Early this morning I talked here about the day dawning perfectly still at TPC River Highlands for the Travelers Championship, and to expect low scoring for the early wave. 

Well Mac Hughes who was in contention for 3 rounds last week at the RBC Heritage before blowing up to a 78 on his final round, has had it all go his way today, playing the back nine first in 29 strokes including 5 birdies in a row, and came home in 31, with a 45 footer for 59 on his last hole the par 4 ninth, a career best bogey free -10 60 to take the clubhouse lead.

Rory McIlroy is next with -7 63, and there are a slew of golfers currently at 64 including Sergio Garcia.

Adam Hadwin became the first Canadian to shoot 59 at the Career Builder Challenge in Palm Springs in 2017. He had 13 birdies on the par 72.

The late wave are now on course with Roger Sloan and Corey Connors. David Hearn shot a +2 72 this morning.
