Lonard, a 37-year-old Australian in his fourth season on Tour, didn't look capable of a landmark round after opening with a bogey. But he made 11 birdies in the next 15 holes to take the lead and briefly flirt with golf's magic number.

Lonard, renowned for his tremendous ball-striking, is the reigning MFS Australian Open champion and is aiming for a third straight Open title this month at Moonah Links. He is ... the current Australian PGA champion.

Lonard ended the US PGA Tour with three missed cuts. His year was either feast or famine. He feasted enough to earn more than $1million, but he never met his own expectations.
