“It was hard to stay in the moment in the final round just knowing that I was so close, but I just never let my guard down until I holed that putt on 18.

“Just it’s been a crazy week with rain delays. I was worried, I was anxious actually playing my last three holes knowing that maybe we’re not going to finish. I did not want a three-, four-shot lead needing to sit down for three hours or to come back tomorrow, so I’m glad I was able to finish. And yeah, here we are.”

The 20-year-old South Korean becomes the second-youngest winner on Tour since the second World War.

Kim started the day at 11-under with eight holes of his third round left to play due to storm delays on Saturday and was two shots behind the lead by the end.

He shot 27 on the front nine of his final round and 34 on the back marred by a single bogey at the par-4 10th.

Kim earned instant membership on Tour with his win and is now eligible for the FedEx Cup Playoffs starting next week. He is currently ranked 34th and guaranteed to play two events.

“It’s been a crazy month. Just before the Scottish I was just trying to get enough points to get in Korn Ferry Finals, and finishing third there, you know, finishing third, I think I was zero points, how many points away from getting special temporary membership, I had to make the cut at The Open and I did. I played 3M, Detroit and Wyndham and really it’s been a five-week stretch for me, but it feels like three months. Yeah, it’s been a hectic month and a lot of things have changed, for sure.

“I wanted to go home next week, I was looking forward to that. I’ve been home two weeks this year, so I was like, you know what, secure my PGA Tour card for next season, I can go back and relax for a week, but I guess that’s not going to happen. I would love to play three weeks in a row again. It’s going to be my eighth week in a row if I make it to the TOUR Championship. It’s a lot of golf, but I’m enjoying it and I’m honored to play on the PGA TOUR, it’s incredible.”

Compatriot Sungjae Im closed with a 68 to tie for second place at 15-under with American John Huh who shot 67.

Ben Griffin reached 14-under with a 64 to take the solo fourth place followed by fellow Americans Max McGreevy (65), Russel Henley (66) and Taylor Moore (67) in fifth at 13-under.
