Folks, hold onto your hats! Real golf drama is brewing on the Korn Ferry Tour, and a youngster is truly shaking up the leaderboard. We're talking about Blades Brown, just 18 years old, who has snatched the co-lead at the Club Car Championship at The Landings Golf & Athletic Club after 54 holes. Alongside 27-year-old John Pak, he sits at a sensational 15-under par. Sunday's final round promises pure excitement.
What a stunning round this teenager has delivered! Brown fired a 1-under 71 in Round 3, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. Before that, he shattered the 36-hole scoring record with an incredible 129 strokes – the previous best was 131. And his opening? A massive 11-under 61, which simply obliterated the single-round record of 62 strokes. Things are really going well for Blades Brown! The young man now has the chance to become the youngest winner in Korn Ferry Tour history – a true milestone we don't want to miss.
The Competition Never Sleeps (or Does It?)
Also chasing the title is John Pak, who shares the lead. For the 27-year-old, this is his sixth start of the season, and he's on the verge of claiming victory here. It will be interesting to see how he handles the pressure. Lack of sleep doesn't seem to bother him – at least, he humorously tweeted about it since a puppy moved in with him. It just goes to show what kind of distractions even top golfers have.
Showdown on the Green
Sunday's final day promises to be a true spectacle. Blades Brown, who already won the Compliance Solutions Championship in 2024 and earned a PGA Tour Card for 2025, is once again showing what he's made of. With birdies on holes 6 and 15 in Round 3 and only one bogey on hole 13, he has demonstrated nerves of steel. Who will triumph in the end and claim the title? We're excited and eagerly following along!
18-year-old amateur Blades Brown co-leads the Club Car Championship with John Pak after three rounds. With an impressive performance, Brown is already breaking records and has the chance to become the youngest winner in Korn Ferry Tour history if he claims victory on the final day.
