High school phenom Tyler Watts took the Sunnehanna Amateur by storm Saturday, shooting his second straight 6-under 64 to set a tournament record with a 19-under total and win the 84th edition of the historic tournament in Johnstown.

Watts, a 17-year-old rising senior from Huntsville, Ala., became the youngest player to win the tournament.

Boise State’s Cole Rueck was second at 15-under par and University of Georgia recruit John Daniel Culbreth was third at 13-under.

J.F. Aber shot an even-par 70 to finish at 2-under for the tournament, tied for 39th.
