You may be intrigued by the name Smylie Kaufman, but maybe even more intriguing is that his brother’s name is Lucky. I can’t make this stuff up, people.

Smylie is playing in his rookie season on the PGA TOUR and he’s already found himself in the winner circle. Kaufman won the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open back in October and he currently sits in fifth place in the FedEx Cup standings.

The 24 year old turned pro after graduating from LSU in 2014. He placed sixth on the Web.com Tour money list after a season that consisted of two T-4 finishes and a win at the United Leasing Championship.

Next: No. 8 - Matthew Fitzpatrick
