8. That win involved a round of 57, although it wasn’t quite as impressive as that sounds. That’s because parts of the course were so waterlogged that the layout had to be shortened by about 1,600 yards, which was adjusted to a par 65 in a 36-hole contest.
9. At the 2013 Portugal Masters, he nearly carded a 59. After 11 birdies in the first 17 holes of his third round, he needed one more at the 18th to break 60. However, his chip towards the hole just drifted past.
10. Per PGATour.com, Jamieson’s favorite Major is The Masters. However, he has yet to play in it. Overall, he has four Open appearances and one in the PGA Championship, resulting in a T29 in 2013.
