Youtube and Social Media star wins Web.com Tour Event

[Dan2501]

Been following his progress all week and saw this morning that Wesley Bryan from the famous trick shot duo The Bryan Bros won his first Web.com Tour event over the weekend. Pretty cool. Have followed the guys via their Youtube channel for a while, and also cheered them on on Big Break, so it's great to see Wesley kicking on and making a name for himself on Tour. Hopefully it'll be the first of many.

Who will be next? Will Paige Spiranac ever win a Tour event? Will Rick and Pete qualify for The Open? Wesley has set a pretty high benchmark for Youtube golfers, be interesting to see who's next to break through.

That's awesome. I seen he was doing well but completely forgot to check to see how he finished.

Fingers crossed Crosfield doesn't make it on the tour...couldn't bear to see that talking egg on my telly 😬

I saw it, good job! I wish seeing Paige Spiranac as a winner in the future.

 

[Hendy]

Must check it out.

Also George shot 65 in the Monday qualifier to miss out by a shot. The guys can play, the trick shots have just got their names out there.

You and me both. He's nothing more than a legend in his own mind now

You're right. Imagine if he somehow won a similar event ...his neck would break due to the weight of his ever increasing head!

He'd need two websites. One for the content and one for the ego. Definitely grown into an internet monster and hope the likes of Finch and Shiels never go the same way

Boy has Wesley kicked on and done well. Won in a playoff last night to earn battlefield promotion straight up to the PGA Tour. Great stuff, hope he finishes strong on the PGA Tour!

The Bryan Bros have got real game. They seemed a cut above other Youtube stars when they've collaborated on videos so not a huge surprise. Finch and Shiels for the Open?? I'mmmmm not so sure, but hope they prove me .

 

[Joff]

I'd say Finch has more chance than Sheils.

I think it is his third win on the Web.com, which is why he gets a 'Battlefield Promotion' to the PGA Tour.

Good on him though!

 

[snell]

What does battlefield promotion mean....hes qualified for the current season pga as well as the next??

Two gloves rules.

 

[Dan2501]

Come on Wesley. What a win. This lad has some serious game. 3 Web.com tour wins last year, and now has his maiden PGA Tour victory. What a man.

Please tell me that you see the total hypocrisy in this post? 😂😂😂

 

[gmhubble]

I hope so to

Finch seems to have his feet fully planted on the ground and just loves the game of golf - would love to travel up there one weekend for a couple of lessons with him

Shiels worries me a little and I see a bit of 'he who cannot be named' there - I love his reviews but do enjoy the midhandicapper a little more - hope Shiels stays grounded

I think they all eventually lose touch tbh.I used to Like Crossfield, then he had his strop because he shows no bias blah blah. Doesn't do sponsorship (callaway/ygt anyone)!

I like Finch most, BUT, did see his vlog the toher day where he asked Vice golf to send him some balls for testing. Buy some if you're that fussed mate! £100 aint gonna set him back with the youtube money coming in..
