Teen Bobby Wyatt shot a 57 yesterday at the Alabama Boys State Junior Championship. He had 5 birdies and an eagle on the par-71, 6,628 yard layout at the Country Club of Mobile. His birdie putt on 18 hung on the lip. Bummer.

"It was unbelievable," he said. "I got off to a fast start with birdies on my first two holes, then was 3-under after four and it kept going from there."

Wyatt has now 3-peated the championship and is headed for the University of Alabama.

Just in the last month we've seen a 58 from Ryo Ishikawa and a 59 from Paul Goydos.

I've said it before. The perfect score is a 54 (essentially a birdie on each hole). Someday, someone is gonna do it. Trust me.

Then again AG fan Mark Plese sends a link describing how shooting a 38-under par is apparently possible.

Fanhouse.com Mick Elliot wonders if this is the most boring Tour season in memory (since maybe POY Wayne Levy's in 1990)?

The PGA Tour season is steaming hard toward the home stretch and there's something noticeably missing. Namely, a player of the year.

With the majors down to only next month's PGA Championship, the 2010 season is looking very much like an interesting story with no ending.

Phil Mickelson won the Masters and has done little else.

Relatively unknown Graeme McDowell won the U.S. Open and Louis Oosthuizen was an even bigger surprise in the British, but what else have they done?

Ernie Els, Jim Furyk, Justin Rose and Steve Stricker are the season's only multiple winners, all with two titles -- but none of them majors.

Tiger Woods may be Player of the Year, but he hasn't done diddly on a golf course.

So what happens if they give an award and nobody deserves it?

The most consistent is Lee Westwood who has two top-3 finishes in majors (16th at the U.S. Open) and only won when Robert Garrigus coughed up a 3-shot lead on the final hole. The PGA Championship is still ahead along with the FedEx playoffs, so hopefully someone pulls away from the sleeping pack. Otherwise, the winner is N/A (non-applicable).

Golfweek updates the strange saga of Sarah Brown's mistaken DQ at the Duramed Futures event last week gets murkier.

Brown’s father, Keith, said Wednesday that Zayra Calderon, the tour’s chief executive officer, proposed $2,000 as compensation. Tour officials would not confirm any offer but said they have apologized to Sarah Brown and her father, which the Browns confirmed. The amount would cover Brown’s entry fees for the final four events of the year.

“It’s not that (the rules official) made a mistake,” Keith Brown said. “Everyone makes mistakes. It was the arrogance to say, ‘I’m pulling her off the course."

So, this is what the Brown's are demanding:

--$5,638, the amount Sarah Brown would’ve earned had she finished The International at Concord at 8-under 208. She was 3 under par for the event when she was removed from the golf course with nine holes remaining.

--A waiver of the entry fee to 2010 LPGA Q-School, a $5,000 value. Brown advanced to the finals last year, finishing 84th.

--An annual seminar for Duramed Futures Tour rules official outlining how to handle difficult situations. “I’d like it to be called the Sarah Brown Seminar,” Keith Brown said.

The Browns would like to be compensated with earnings equal to those for players who finished The International at 8 under par. Brown missed a 12-foot birdie putt as a rules official sifted through her bag, which was in Brown’s line of vision.

That putt would’ve put her at 4 under par. Brown’s best score on the back nine at Beaver Meadow Golf Course during the tournament was 4 under, Keith
