Jake Knapp made history in Thursday’s first round of the 2025 Cognizant Classic in the Palm Beaches when he became just the 14 th player to shoot 59 or better on the PGA Tour. How historic is this? Almost as many men have walked on the moon (12) than shot a 59 or below on the PGA Tour.

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. — Jake Knapp was 11 shots worse than his opening round at the Cognizant Classic and still stayed in front, curling in a 15-foot birdie putt on his final hole Friday for a 1-under 70 and a one-shot lead over Matthieu Pavon.

It's all new to me," Knapp said, as quoted by Daily Mail. "Yesterday, everything was just clicking ball-striking wise, distance control felt really good, was able to control flight and windows. All that was perfect.
