Move Lydia Ko, there's a new girl in town.

Amateur Phachara Khongwatmai, at the tender age of 14, became the youngest golfer to win a pro event when it went bankrupt in the ASEAN PGA Tour Singhua Hin Open 13.

And a squeaker, clears was not the field for a four shots of developer. Heck, the guy showed a smile before shooting at the 18th hole.

Khongwatmai was born May 3, 1999, almost seven months younger than Ko when he won his first professional title, the go new South Wales Open in January 2012, also in 14. Ko would go on to win on the LPGA Tour as well.

Ryo Ishikawa kept the record before Ko, winning at the age of 15 years and eight months in 2007.

Khongwatmai is the latest teenager to steal headlines, as 19-year-old Jordan Spieth recently became the player youngest to win on the PGA Tour since 1931, while also becoming the youngest champion in the fourth in the history of the Tour. Spieth turns 20 on Saturday.
