2013 Wells Fargo Championship Discussion Thread

My take is you're going to see a lot of him going forward. He looked pretty cool, calm and collected all through the tournament, as well as the playoff hole. This win gave him the memtal confidence that he can compete with the big guys.

Ice water in his veins.

Despite being British, I favoured Ernst to win the play-off, as he is obviously young and needs the success-----then I heard his "victory speech".  Oh, dear!!   Like many Americans, he attributed his win to "My Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ"!!!   I would have thought He would have more important things than helping Mr. Ernst win a golf tourney------methinks Mr. Ernst needs to reassess things, as it is highly unlikely he is favoured more than the other players on high!!

I shall not be rooting for him again.

Another P.C. snob

It's his right to thank whomever he wants. Good for him

I think it could go either way for him.  The guy is only 22- out of curiosity I wonder who is the youngest PGA Tour winner with only 1 career victory??

My guess is that the majority of guys who have won under the age of 25 went on to win at least 1 more time during their career.

Edit- the current answer might be John Huh who won at age 21 last year.  Jason Day whose only PGA win came in 2010 at age 22 could also be a contender, but it is hard to believe that Day, who won a NW event at 19 won't win again.  I guess a better question would be who is the youngest winner now over 40 with only 1 victory.
