Christopher Cain runs to the green to make his putt. The Penn State golf pro broke the old Guinness World Record of 476 holes in just over 11 hours, and completed his 500th hole at just under 11 hours, 48 minutes. He averaged seven minutes per five-hole loop, and covered roughly 90 miles of ground during his 12-hour extravaganza.

Cain's 505 holes played in a 12-hour period shattered the old mark of 476.


Brett Harzfield, a marketing major, kept count of the rounds played and the time needed for Christopher Cain to stay on his world-record pace.
