At just 20 years of age, Noh Seung-yul has already notched up two professional tournament wins and is currently ranked as the 104th best golfer in the world.
After turning professional back in 2007, the South Korean has made a big splash on the Asian Tour and more recently, the European Tour.
In his first full season on the Asian Tour, Noh won the Midea China Classic and was named the tour’s rookie of the year.
Then in 2010, he won the Maybank Malaysian Open which was co-sanctioned with the European Tour. The win made him the second youngest winner ever on the European Tour after number nine on this list, Danny Lee.
He finished 2010 as the leader of the Asian Tour money list and ranked 34th on the European Tour Order of Merit.
He has also impressed on the big stage over the last two years with top 30 finishes in this year’s U.S. Open and The Open Championship, along with a tie for 28th in last year’s PGA Championship.
