VIKTOR HOVLAND MADE history, surpassing Jack Nicklaus for the lowest 72-hole score by an amateur at the US Open.
Winner of a record 18 major championships, American great Nicklaus set the record via a 282 in 1960.
However, unheralded Norwegian Hovland broke the record with a score of 280 at Pebble Beach on Sunday.
The 21-year-old, who posted 69-73-71 in the opening three rounds, signed off with a four-under-par 67 to finish tied for 12th.
