PGA Tour Honda Classic 2021: Matt Jones ties course record with opening-round 61 – Sydney Morning Herald
There have been roughly 6000 tournament rounds at the Honda Classic since 2007. None were better than that of Matt Jones, the world No.83, in Thursday’s opener.
Russell Henley and Aaron Wise were each six-under after their opening rounds, those 64s matching the best score at the Honda by anyone Jones excluded since Rory McIlroy and Russell Knox each had 63s in 2014. Nobody in the field last year shot better than a 66.
And Henley and Wise still walked off the course Thursday three shots back.

Thats an amazing round, Wise said. But I felt like I played one, too.
