Did Tatum Gretzky Johnson just make a play for cutest kid on tour?

For the last two seasons, Jason Day's son, Dash, has been the champ when it comes to cutest kid on tour. We’ve seen a lot of Dash running onto greens, hugging his dad after big wins. We’ve seen the Instagram videos of him being hilarious and quoting Happy Gilmore while he’s hitting golf balls. We’ve even seen him on a new commercial, where he’s the sweetest narrator of all time. And don't forget when we put him on our cover.

But at the U.S. Open on Sunday, a new adorable munchkin was hoisted up by his victorious dad: Tatum Gretzky Johnson.

He handled it like a pro.
