Anthony Kim became the youngest winner on the PGA Tour in more than six years when he clinched an emphatic five-stroke victory at the $6.4 million Wachovia Championship on Sunday.
The 22-year-old Kim, who started the final round with a four-shot lead, was never headed, picking up four birdies on the front nine en route to a three-under-par 69 in pleasant conditions at Quail Hollow.
"This has been a dream of mine for a long time and I'm living it," he told reporters after finishing at 16-under 272.
Fellow American Ben Curtis shot the day's best score, a 65, to finish second on 11 under.
Kim recorded a tournament record low score and the largest margin of victory in the event's brief six-year history, collecting $1,152,000 and vaulting to sixth on this year's PGA Tour money list.
