"Mr. 59"
Geiberger was already a major championship winner by the time he reached Memphis in 1977, but what happened that year at the Danny Thomas Memphis Classic (now known as the Stanford St. Jude Championship) sealed Geiberger's place in history. That year, he became the first golfer to shoot 59 in a PGA Tour tournament.
