68 year old Alabama golfer plays 500 holes ... in a row
Quote:

Bob Kurtz knocked out 500 holes in 39 consecutive hours of golf. That's 27 18-hole rounds, with one 14-hole round left over. And every single hole was played at Chesley Oaks in Fairview, Alabama. He started at 5:01 a.m. on a Wednesday and finished at 7:48 p.m. on Thursday

His monster round raised more than $40,000 for various charities, according to Kurtz.

he notched his age twice, and shot par or better 12 times. Overall, he averaged 72.6 for the daytime game and 76.7 once the sun went down. (He used glow-in-the-dark balls for the evening rounds.)
