Gipper Finau
Check this out, snipped from the globeandmail.com:
YOUTH IS SERVED: The latest teenager to make a splash is Gipper Finau, a 16-year-old from Salt Lake City, who earned a spot in the Nationwide Tour event last week by shooting 63 in the Monday qualifier, then became the youngest player in that tour's history to make the cut with a 67 in the second round.
He finished at even-par 288 to tie for 58th among the 61 players who made the cut, turning heads along the way. Finau averaged 339.3 yards off the tee — the highest average of any player this year in a Nationwide event — and led the field with 24 birdies.
Finau, a junior at West High School, was the youngest player to make the cut in a PGA Tour-sanctioned event since 15-year-old Bob Panasik in the 1957 Canadian Open.www.chapeaunoirgolf.com

If he finished at even par, but had 24 birdies he also had a tonne of bogey and double bogeys too. He'll have to learn to be more consistent than that for sure!

With a name like 'Gipper', the US press is going to go gaga over him!

Yeah, but he's no Michelle Wie.
When applying the Rules, you follow them line by line. You don't read between them.

Is Gipper a man? Cause I only root for the men...even if they only shoot par, yet somehow get rocognized for having 24 birdies.
