Blades Brown became the youngest player to win on the PGA Tour since 1931 on Sunday.

Brown doesn’t turn 20 until May 2027, and that puts him in some elite company on the PGA Tour.

The teenager is younger than Tiger Woods was when he won his first PGA Tour title. In fact he is more than a year younger than the 15-time major champion was when he lifted his first trophy.

Only three men have won PGA Tour tournaments at younger ages than Blades Brown – Charles Kocsis at the 1931 Michigan Open, Harry Cooper at the 1923 Galveston Open Championship, and Ralph Guldahl at the 1931 Santa Monica Open.

Do you think Jackson Koivun is more likely to win his first major than Brooks Koepka is to win his sixth next year? 🤔

Meanwhile, Tiger Woods was 20 years, 9 months and 6 days old when he won for the first time at the Shriners Children’s Open in 1996.

Obviously, Woods has gone on to enjoy arguably the greatest golfing career of all-time, and such is the mentality of Blades Brown, the 19-year-old will be looking to replicate the great man’s achievements.

The supremely talented teenager addressed the media after his playoff win over Ben James at the World Wide Technology Championship on Sunday.

Brown was asked by one reporter to share his emotions after winning on the PGA Tour for the very first time.

And the 19-year-old shared his genuine disbelief that he has already recorded his maiden PGA Tour victory.

“It hasn’t sunk in just yet, I guess, the magnitude of being a PGA Tour winner,“ Brown emotionally admitted.

“Golf is one of the best games, is one of the greatest games in the world. It challenges you mentally, physically, spiritually. It challenges you in every aspect of us, right? I mean, it still hasn’t sunk in yet.

“I just go back to, you know, 5-year-old Blades that was watching the TV and watching Tiger Woods and all those great players win major championships, and to think that I’m now in a similar spot with having won a PGA Tour event is mind-blowing.“

Brown was then asked whether he truly believed he would win on the PGA Tour while still a teenager.

“No, I did not,“ the 19-year-old admitted.

“I’m so thankful to be in this position. It’s remarkable. It still hasn’t sunk in yet that I’m officially a PGA Tour winner, but I’m sure it will tonight.

“And it was so special seeing my dad here and giving him a big bear hug after we finished the tournament.“

Of course, the real challenge now for Blades Brown will be to become a consistent winner over the next couple of decades.

And it will be very interesting to see how he performs against the likes of Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy in the big events next season, and then during the Championship Series, which he is now exempt for, in 2028.
