Blades Brown impressed the golf experts and fans as he made the cut at the Myrtle Beach Classic, his debut event on the PGA Tour. He aggregated at 3-under, one better than the set cutline of 2-under.

Brown carded a 4-under 67 in the second round of the Myrtle Beach and aggregated at 3-under after 36 holes. He birdied five holes and made one bogey in the round, which helped him secure his maiden cut on the tour.

Blades Brown received a lot of praise on social media. Besides, fans also made a lot of jokes about his first name.

Here's a look at some of the reactions:

"It definitely feels surreal" Blades Brown on making the cut at the Myrtle Beach Classic

During the post-round interview on Friday, Blades Brown expressed his feelings after making the cut at the Myrtle Beach Classic, his first-ever start on the PGA Tour.

"It feels amazing," he said, "For me, I was like, okay, I can either make the cut or do homework tomorrow and feel bad about myself. My mom was kind of throwing that at me this morning, and I was like, all right, mom. But it definitely feels surreal."

"After I made that putt on 9, that little two-inch putt, I was like, yes. I can go chill by the beach, I can do whatever, but I'm so stoked," he added.

Brown revealed that while entering the week, his goal was to make it to the weekend, and luckily he made it. Now, he just wanted to play and see how low he could go in the remaining two rounds.

The 16-year-old golfer is paired with Parker Coody for the third round of the Myrtle Beach Classic. The duo will take off at 7:50 am ET on Saturday, May 11.
