Blades Brown — truly one of the greatest golf names of all time, by the way — is making his professional debut at this week's American Express at PGA West. Brown played La Quinta Country Club on Thursday — the AmEx uses three courses for the first three rounds before the 54-hole cut is made Saturday night and the final round is played at PGA West's Pete Dye Stadium Course (the other being the Nicklaus Tournament Course) — and posted an even-par 72.

Blades Brown, 17, is having one heck of a PGA Tour debut at The American Express leaving fans in awe of his game.
