SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Matthew Wolff continues to become a superstar before everyone’s eyes. There’s the weird-but-cool swing, the prodigious ball speed and power, and the contagious personality.
Yet, as Wolff’s instructor George Gankas said, “There’s still a lot that we don’t know about Matt.”
On Thursday, the 19-year-old Oklahoma State sophomore competed in his first PGA Tour round and answered the question of how he’d respond, emphatically. Wolff shot 4-under 67 and sat just three shots off the lead after the morning wave.
“Playing in front of a crowd like this, I never experienced anything like it before,” Wolff said.
