Being promoted to replace Jon Rahm, Brandon Hagy suddenly took the top of the table by hitting 64 sticks in the first round of the PGA Tour event in California on January 21.

The tournament took place in PGA West, at Stadium and Nicklaus Tournament, both par72.

The list of matches includes 156 golfers with a bonus fund of 6.7 million USD. Earlier this week, world second player Jon Rahm withdrew from a sudden injury during a private fitness session. Therefore, Hagy was promoted to an official rate.

“I’ll have to send Jon a bottle of wine or something,” Hagy said after the round. Before going pro, Hagy was both a friend and a rival to Rahm. Hagy is a golfer at the University of Berkeley, while Rahm is from Arizona.

Hagy was born in 1991, went to the PGA Tour since 2017, but the first few years did not stand out because of many injuries. He has gone through 76 events in which 34 elimination times, including the only time to finish the top 10 – ranked T5 at the RBC Canadian Open 2017.
