Brown becomes youngest PGA Tour winner since 1938
Nineteen-year-old Blades Brown became the youngest PGA Tour winner in 88 years by taking the World Wide Technology Championship in Mexico. He erased a seven-shot deficit with a closing 63, then beat Ben James in a two-hole playoff. The victory came in a dramatic final round built around Brown's late charge.
