It's fun to watch excellent rounds like Brad Faxon's 61 yesterday not only from a quality golf point of view but also statistically. I started figuring out things like the fact that it was the lowest final round for a winner since David Duval's amazing 59 in '99, but of course someone on the PGA Tour staff gets paid to dig up these tidbits and has better accesses to resources, so the lowdown on what that 61 means can be found here.
It took some extra digging to find out how long Faxon's drive that wouldn't stop rolling down the cart path on 17. Since he's not that long of a hitter, that extended roll had to make that one of his longer drives at 329 yards.
