JASON HAK IS NOW the youngest player to make a cut on the European Tour. The 14-year-old shot a pair of 70s at the Hong Kong Open to make the cut on the number.
Previously Sergio Garcia was the youngest player to make a European Tour cut. Garcia was just 15 when he broke through 13 years ago at the Turespana Open Mediterrania in Spain.
Hak isn’t letting the feat go to his head.
“I have no ideas of turning pro because it’s only one tournament here,” Hak told the AP. “It doesn’t really tell the whole story.”
Good decision, Jason.
