Joaquin Niemann on Sunday became the first player from Chile to win on the PGA Tour.
Another first for the 20-year-old: He cracked the Official World Golf Ranking's top 50.
The former amateur No. 1 is now OWGR No. 50 coming off his win at the Greenbrier.
The victory earned him full-time PGA Tour status through the 2021-22 season and secured him exemptions into next year's Players, Masters and PGA Championship.
