17-year-old Akshay Bhatia dazzles in PGA Tour debut, but misses cut at Valspar Championship
Akshay Bhatia won't be playing at the Valspar Championship this weekend. Making his PGA Tour debut at Innisbrook, the 17-year-old prodigy turned heads early in the week by stating his goal was not to make the cut but win the tournament, sprinkling in some trash talk to Jon Rahm for good measure. "The first day I was definitely nervous, the first seven or eight holes I was not comfortable at all," Bhatia said on Friday.
