Cognizant champ is the fourth golfer born in the 2000s to win on the PGA Tour

It's a club with four members now, but eventually it'll number in the hundreds. That's inevitable. For now, though, there are just four pro golfers born in the 2000s who have won a PGA Tour event.

Interestingly, two of the four have two Tour wins and another already has three. The latest to do so is 24-year-old Joe Highsmith, who is one of two lefties on this list.

Here are the names of the four (for now) newbies who already have PGA Tour trophies on their mantles.

Joe Highsmith

Born: April 19, 2000.

Highsmith won the 2025 Cognizant Classic in the Palm Beaches after making the cut on the number and then posting back-to-back 64s over the weekend at PGA National. He's just the sixth golfer since 2003 to win after making the cut on the number.

Akshay Bhatia

Born: Jan. 31, 2002.

Bhatia was 21 when he won the 2023 Barracuda Championship for his maiden victory. He then followed that up in the 2024 Valero Texas Open. Bhatia turned pro at 17, forgoing college for life on the professional circuit.

Tom Kim

Born: June 21, 2002

Kim is the actually the first golfer born in the 2000s to win on the PGA Tour when he claimed the 2022 Wyndham Championship. His story there was incredible, as he made quadruple bogey on the first hole of the tournament. By going on to win, he became the first player in the last 40 years to overcome such a start to win. He was 20 years, 1 month, 17 days old when he hoisted the trophy, the second-youngest winner on Tour since World War II. He later won the Shriners Childrens Open in Las Vegas back-to-back in 2022 and 2023.

Nick Dunlap

Born: Dec. 23, 2003.

Dunlap's claim to fame was becoming the first amateur since Phil Mickelson in 1991 to win a PGA Tour event. Dunlap was just 20 and still enrolled at Alabama when he not only won but won in record style at the 2024 American Express. His 29-under 259 total set the tournament record for the event since it switched to a 72-hole format in 2012. [It was the Tour's lone 90-hole event for many years prior to that.] Six months later, Dunlap won the Barracuda Championship, becoming the first golfer ever to win as an amateur and as a professional in one PGA Tour season.
