(BEAVERTON, Ore.) – Nike Athlete Seung-Yul Noh posted a final score of 19-under 269 to notch his first PGA Tour victory at the Zurich Classic.

The 22-year-old – the youngest to win on Tour this year -- was fourth in driving distance for the tournament, averaging more than 304 yards off the tee with his Nike VRS Covert 2.0 Tour driver featuring Fly-Brace technology for more forgiving distance. Noh also tied for fourth in greens in regulation at 79 percent, playing Nike VRS Forged, VR Pro Combo and VR Pro Blade irons.

With a new Nike Method 005 mallet putter and Nike RZN Platinum ball with Speedlock RZN technology in the bag, Noh was seventh in putts per greens in regulation and is the first player ever to complete 54 holes without a bogey at TPC Louisiana.
