Lydia Ko is the youngest golfer to. . . well, pretty much everything

November 23, 2015

Lydia Ko is making things tough on the course for her fellow LPGA Tour pros, but she's making things easy for those keeping track of golf's all-time records. If you're trying to figure out who the youngest golfer to ever do something is, odds are it's Ko. Here's a (growing) list of milestones the 18-year-old phenom already holds:

-- Youngest golfer to be ranked No. 1 in the world.

-- Youngest golfer to win a major championship (Sorry, Young Tom Morris).

-- Youngest golfer to win player of the year on a major tour.

-- Youngest golfer to win the LPGA's Road to the CME Globe. (She's claimed the $1 million bonus twice already)
