The greatest day of golf I have ever witnessed was at Big Canyon Country Club in Newport Beach on April 29, 1996.  The greatest week of golf I have ever witnessed was at Torrey Pines South in La Jolla in June 2008.

As you might have guessed, both featured Tiger Woods and his bag of golf tricks.
When he was a Stanford sophomore, Tiger shot 61-65 at Big Canyon, where he was and still is an honorary member, to kick-start his runaway to medalist honors in the 1996 Pac-10 Championship. It was an awe-inspiring display of shot-making and athleticism, because he broke the previous course record of 66 twice in the same day while carrying his own bag up and down the hilly terrain at Big Canyon in the sweltering heat.
Even Tiger conceded during a one-on-one interview a few years ago that he also considered that his “single best day of all-day golf, by far. Granted, that was before he won the 2008 U.S. Open on one good leg, limping around Torrey Pines for five days and 91 holes while grimacing through the pain of two stress fractures and a torn ACL.
But it speaks volumes that a future Hall of Famer whose glittering resume is now highlighted by 72 PGA Tour victories actually singles out one day in his record-breaking amateur career.

“Made two bogeys and shot 18-under,” Tiger said, laughing as he reminisced about his record-shattering performance at Big Canyon.

It is the greatest 27 holes I’ve ever played (in one stretch) because I went out in 30-31-31. I was chipping in and holing out all over the place, and I made everything (on the greens) that day.”

Danny Bibb, a six-time Big Canyon club champion, vividly remembers that day, too, because he was in the gallery watching Tiger make 10 birdies and one eagle on the way to destroying the course record he had set in 1986. “Three of us shared the (course) record until that day,” Bibb recalled.


Bibb’s presence that day, and his perspective now, are important, because he also was playing at Big Canyon in late January when Will Tipton, another six-time Big Canyon club champ, matched Tiger’s course record with an 11-under 61.
