Kevin Roy and Aldrich Potgieter Shoot Rocket Classic-Record 62s to Share 1st-Round Lead
- Kevin Roy and Aldrich Potgieter each shot a 10-under 62 on June 26, 2025, at Detroit Golf Club to share the first-round lead at the Rocket Classic.
- They broke the previous tournament 18-hole record of 63 on a course known for being relatively easy since becoming a PGA Tour annual stop in 2019, aided by recent rain making greens more receptive.
- Both players posted bogey-free rounds including an eagle and eight birdies each, with Roy's notable 300-yard drive and 30-foot chip-in eagle on the par-5 17th hole drawing attention.
- Roy described it as a day when everything seemed to fall into place, while Potgieter expressed his strong desire to sink the 12-foot birdie putt that would have secured him the solo lead.
- Min Woo Lee, along with Americans Max Greyserman and Mark Hubbard, each matched the tournament record score of 63, placing them just one stroke behind the leaders in a tightly packed field of 156 competitors.
