PGA: Dufner ties major scoring record with 63 at PGA

PITTSFORD, N.Y. — Jason Dufner got on quite a roll after he holed out from the fairway for an eagle at the second hole.


Not that anyone could tell.


The laid-back player who gave us "Dufnering" hardly showed a lick of emotion during his relentless march toward the record book.


Then, finally, with a chance to do something that had never been done — shoot 62 in a major championship — the significance of the moment finally got to him.


Dufner left a 12-foot birdie putt a good 18 inches short, settling for a 7-under 63 that tied the major scoring record at the PGA Championship on Friday.


"I showed a little bit of nerves there," he conceded. "That's one where you'd like to gun it when you have a chance at history. But I was able to two-putt and share a little bit of history.
