Aldrich Potgieter won the Rocket Classic from Detroit, MI after beating Max Greyserman and Chris Kirk in a playoff.
Potgieter, 20, won the Rocket Classic on his 20th start on the PGA Tour. He sunk a 17-foot putt for birdie on No. 15-par-3 to win the tournament.
He outlasted two veteran golfers for his first PGA Tour win.
Kirk finished his day with the lead at 22-under but was tied by Greyserman and Potgieter by the time they wrapped up No. 18.
After the trio shot par on No. 18, Kirk shot one over on the par-3 hole 15 leaving Greyserman and Potgieter to decide the winner.
The two golfers were step for step until Potgieter made the tournament winning putt back on 15.
Potgieter takes home $1,728,000 after the win.
