Miles Russell is making his seventh PGA Tour start this week at the ISCO Championship July 9-12 at the Hurstbourne Country Club in Louisville, Ky.
If the 17-year-old from Jacksonville Beach keeps stacking good finishes ― Russell made the cut in the U.S. Open and the Puerto Rico Open and tied for 15th in the Korn Ferry Tour Club Car Championship for his highest finish in 13 professional starts ― will he ever get to Florida State, where he's scheduled to enroll in the fall of 2027?
However, there are yet to be any signs of impatience on his part to fast-track his career to professional golf.
At a news conference on July 8 after playing in the pro-am, Russell talked more about learning from the example of the players in his group for the first two rounds, Jackson Koivun (who played three years at Auburn) and Ben James (four years at Virginia).
