Who is Al Brosch?

Alfred "Red" Brosch was an American professional golfer.

Brosch worked primarily as a club pro but also played on the PGA Tour, making 125 cuts between 1933 and 1962. He was the first player to shoot a round of 60 on the Tour, in the third round of the 1951 Texas Open. He went on to finish fourth, shooting a final-round 70, three strokes out of the E.J. Harrison-Doug Ford playoff. Three weeks later, Brosch turned in his top PGA Tour performance, a runner-up finish at the St. Petersburg Open. He fell by six strokes to winner Jim Ferrier.

As a club pro, he worked primarily in the New York City area, including Bethpage, Cherry Valley Club, and Sands Point Golf Club. He won the Long Island Open 10 times, the Long Island PGA nine times, and the Metropolitan PGA six times.
