Will 17-year-old Blades Brown become the next big thing on the PGA Tour

Brown has already made his mark as an amateur and a professional.

In 2023, he became the youngest medalist in U.S. Amateur history at 16, breaking Bobby Jones' 103-year-old record. Incredibly, Brown was nearly two years younger than Jones, who was 18 when he set the record in 1920. Brown shot a course-record 64 at Colorado Golf Club en route to that accomplishment.

A year later, he was the medalist in the U.S. Junior Amateur. Joining Tiger Woods and Bobby Clampett as the only golfer to earn medalist honors in both the U.S. Amateur and U.S. Junior Amateur. To have your name in the record books with Bobby Clampett, Bobby Jones, and Tiger Woods is a good harbinger.

While Brown never broke through to win a USGA event or a major amateur event, he took home three AJGA events, won the Tennessee Jr. by a whopping 12 shots, and made the cut in the only PGA Tour event he played in as an amateur in the 2024 Myrtle Beach Classic.

He also recorded a runner-up finish in the U.S. Four-Ball with Jackson Herrington, along with seven other top-ten finishes in events like the Jones Cup in 2024 (5th place), the Junior Players Championship (2nd), and the Western Amateur (9th).
