About Al Brosch

Albert Wenzel "Red" Brosch was an American professional golfer. Brosch was the first player to shoot a round of 60 on the Tour, in the third round of the 1951 Texas Open. Brosch won the Long Island Open ten times, the Long Island PGA Championship nine times, and the Metropolitan PGA six times. He success was so great at the Long Island PGA that the tournament was jocularly referred to as a "benefit" for Brosch because he reliably picked up the first place cheque.
