Jamie Kureluk accomplished something Tuesday that no other golfer has ever done; has probably never even dreamed of doing.

The 34-year-old former Canadian Tour pro from Cottonwood fired an 11-under-par 25 on the back nine at Carnmoney Golf Club during the first round of the $31,000 RBC Insurance Alberta Open to leave the field of 132 shaking their heads in wonderment.

The only thing the Calgarian failed to do was break 60 as he recovered from a shaky front nine to post a pace-setting and course-record 10-under 61.

What was even more remarkable about the final tally is he four-putted the 135-yard, par 3 fourth hole from 35 feet and bogeyed the eighth hole, the shortest par 4 on the 6,834-yard layout.

The PGA Tour record for lowest nine-hole score is a 26 by Corey Pavin at the 2006 U.S. Bank Championship on a par 34 nine. Jason Bohn also shot a 26 in a Canadian Tour event in 2001 on a par 35 nine. For a par 36, no one is believed to have ever scored lower than 27.
