GOLF

PGA: Robert Garrigus broke the 54-hole scoring record at the Canadian Open that was set more than a half-century ago by Arnold Palmer.

At Hamilton Golf & Country Club in Ancaster, Ontario, Garrigus used his power and some timely putts for a 6-under 64 that gave him a one-shot lead over William McGirt, who lost ground with a 66.

Garrigus was at 16-under 194, one shot better than Palmer in 1955 at Weston Golf & Country Club outside Toronto, and matched two years ago by Dean Wilson at St. George’s Golf & Country Club. Palmer went on to win the 1955 Canadian Open for the first of his 62 titles on the PGA Tour.
