    At just 15 years old, Miles Russell, standing 5 feet 7 inches and weighing in at 135 pounds, is making his PGA TOUR debut at the 2024 Rocket Mortgage Classic this week.

    Russell’s already impressive playing resume includes victories at the Junior PGA Championship and Junior PLAYERS when he was 14. In April, he became the youngest player to ever make a cut on the Korn Ferry Tour at age 15, en route to a T21 finish.

    Now, Russell is set to make his PGA TOUR debut at Detroit Golf Club this week, playing on a sponsor exemption.

    Although Russell is giving up a lot compared to his competitors in terms of age and height, he can still bring the speed. In a warm-up session on the range at Detroit Golf Club on Tuesday, Russell was spotted hitting ball speeds of around 168-170 mph on a Full Swing launch monitor, compared to the current PGA TOUR average of 173.73 mph, according to PGATOUR.com.

    He brings the smiles with his short game, too. Just ask his 60-degree TaylorMade MG4 lob wedge and his TaylorMade TP Soto putter.

    So what other clubs does a 170-ball-speed-hitting, 15-year-old golfer use when he tees it up in a PGA TOUR event for the first time?
