OT: Speaking of 20 year olds winning PGA Tour Events...

[purplefaithful]

Let’s hear it for the kids.
Matthew Wolff, a 20-year-old making his third career PGA Tour start on a sponsor’s exemption this week at TPC Twin Cities in Blaine, shot a final round 6-under 65 on Sunday to win the inaugural 3M Open at 21 under total.
Wolff, who will cash $1.152 million and earn an automatic berth into PGA Tour membership, did so in dramatic fashion.
He beat 22-year-old Collin Morikawa and 25-year-old Bryson DeChambeau by one stroke.
Wolff, who shed tears of joy and hugged his caddie when it was over, made a 26-foot eagle putt on No. 18 for the win.
Morikawa and DeChambeau both shot 66s in the final round.
He is the first sponsor’s exemption to win a PGA Tour event since Billy Hurley III at the 2016 Quicken Loans event in Maryland.

As an avid golf/PGA tour fan, the TC's did a great job, representin. 
And as a former area resident (long ago) , I'm not surprised.  

Minnesota is at  the top of major states/per capita golfers.  https://golfblogger.com/golf_courses_per_capita/
 
This tourney (hopefully) will  become a staple on the PGA tour, for years.  
Solid big money sponsor (3M) , good venue(course) , rabid fans, CHARITY benefactors  = SUCCESS.  

It was well attended, and the finish (above) came down to the last hole, of the tournament.  Between 2 rookie up/comers.  Great stuff.  
The golf world, took notice.  

And it had no shabby field, including:  
Jason Day 
Bryson DeChambeau
Hideki Matsuyama
Patrick Reed 
Tony Finau 

 world-class top 20 OWGR's were there.  

As it happened, Wolff (the winner) and Morikawa (runner up)  so happened to be among the top college rooks entering the tour, this year.  


Great exposure for the TC's.   Good job, TC!
