    Jackson Koivun holds off Scottie Scheffler for first PGA win

    PGA rookie Jackson Koivun won his first tour event on Sunday, holding off Scottie Scheffler to win the 3M Open by three strokes.

    Koivun shot 5-under in the final round to secure the win, and by doing so secured a rather historic win for himself and the tournament.

    Jackson Koivun’s first PGA win comes in historic manner

    With his 66, 5-under on Sunday, Koivun finished the tournament a whopping 25-under with a 259 total, setting a new tournament record.

    His multiple-stroke win was also a historic, as he becomes the youngest American to win any PGA event by multiple strokes since 20-year-old Ralph Guldahl at the Arizona Open by five shots in 1932.

    Koivun won the 3M Open at 21 years old.
