    I think this is great!! this kids come guns blazing they have nothing to lose but so much to gain from an experience like this. Just look at Soccer (football) you have kids getting drafted at 11-14 to play in the minor leagues from big teams and when they are 15-16 they play pro. Same happens in tennis you have people like Rafael Nadal playing at 15-16 majors or Sharapova winning wimbledon at the age of 17. or in hockey Dominik Hasek first pro game at age of 16...

    Good for him I'm pretty sure Golf channel and the others will be keeping a close eye on him!!
