Wesley Bryan's brother George is all set to make his PGA Tour debut at this week's Butterfield Bermuda Championship. The tournament will start on Thursday, November 9 and will have its finale on Sunday, November 12.

The Bryan brothers have a YouTube channel and are very popular among fans. George earned a spot at this week's PGA Tour event on a sponsor exemption and his brother believes he has the potential to win his maiden PGA Tour title as a debutant on the Tour.

Ahead of the start of the tournament, Wesley spoke about his brother in a press conference. He said (via Golf Magic):

"I don't think it sounds silly at all because I watch you play and it is tremendously more talented -- it's not a knock on a lot of the people in the field this week, but tremendously more talented than the vast majority of the field that's teeing it up this week. So I don't feel like it's a stretch to say that you have a chance to compete and win as a YouTuber."

George also opened up about his debut. He said:

"Like my game is good and so I know like even just like through a few weeks ago, a month ago it would have been like okay, if I just made the cut or if I just play OK. But now it's like I'm playing good, so it's like, man, what about top-10 to get into next week, which sounds silly because I make YouTube videos for a living, but like the game's been that good in tournaments."

Having turned pro in 2012, Wesley Bryan has won four tournaments so far. He will be playing for his second PGA Tour victory this week.
