A teenager has made golf history in Mexico. Yahoo Sports, carrying an AFP report, says Blades Brown won the World Wide Technology Championship in Los Cabos at 19 years and five months old

Brown started the final round seven shots back and shot a 63 to finish 23 under. Ben James, who led by four overnight, shot 70 including an eagle on the 18th to force a playoff

On the second playoff hole, James missed from about eight feet and Brown holed a short birdie putt to win. Michael Kim finished third at 22 under

Brown is the youngest PGA Tour winner since Charles Kocsis in 1931, and younger than Jordan Spieth was at the 2013 John Deere Classic. Brown said he got James this time, and expected them to be battling it out for years to come

Coming from seven shots behind with a 63 on the final day is the stuff of legend. The rivalry between Brown and James could become a great storyline for American golf. A teenager winning on the PGA Tour is rare, so this is a special moment

How good could Blades Brown become? And is a new young rivalry just what golf needs?
