At the beginning of the month, at an age when most young people are still learning to shave, a child’s face Brown blades19, he became the youngest player ever graduate to the PGA Tour via the Korn Ferry Tour.
His early success made bold headlines. It was also the discussion among other professionals.
In a recent episode of GOLF’s Subpar podcastDavis Lamb, who was part of the same graduating class, was asked about the players who impressed him the most on the Korn Ferry Tour last season. Brown was the first name that came to mind.
“It’s remarkable in many different ways,” Lamb said. And not just because of his dancing. There was also, as Lamb joked, his poise “like a 12-year-old.”
Seriously though, how consistent was Brown in 2026? So consistent that he finished 9th in the season’s points total without managing a win. That’s hard to do, Lamb said.
But another player pulled the same trick – a lesser-known pro who Lamb says also cuts the profile of a star in the making: 27 years old. Hunter Eichhorna Marquette product who played the season with his girlfriend, Sarah Busey, on his scholarship.
Lamb described Eichhorn as “a flat-out flusher.” The numbers back up his take. Like Brown, Eichhorn didn’t capture a title in 2026. But he made 19 of 25 cuts and recorded nine top 10s and one runner-up finish.
“He’s a guy I’m definitely going to look up to,” Lamb said. “It’s super impressive.”
The game of the lamb is not removed. He was a winner of Korn Ferry in 2026 and finished 20th in the ranking, just in the cutoff itself. You’ll see him on the PGA Tour soon.
