This personal record might stand for awhile: 14 birdies and 4 pars in the final round en route to a 16-shot win

Davis Hartwell, a 13-year old from Klamath Falls, posted a 14-under par 58 in the final round of the Klamath Basin Junior Championship played July 28-29 at Running Y Ranch in Klamath Falls. He won the Boys 12-13 division by 16 strokes.

Hartwell, who shot a 3-under par 69 on the first day, recorded 14 birdies in the final round for a blemish-free scorecard.

He rattled off five birdies in a row on holes No. 2 through 6 and another five straight on holes No. 8 through 12, before closing out the round with birdies in four of his last five holes.

Hartwell only registered one bogey over the course of two days.

The 58 he posted on Thursday is a new course record at Running Y Ranch. His previous career-best score was a 64.
