Why isn't anyone talking about this kid. In my opinion he is the best amateur golfer on the planet. He just won the NCAA D1 Championship today, that gives him 8 wins on the college year (Tiger Woods only had 7 when he was a sophmore.) including 7 of his last 8 tournaments. Here is his record for the 2008-09 season. I watched him play and he has one sound swing, similar to Hunter Mahan or Davis Love III.

NCAA Championship - 1st -6
NCAA West Regional - 1st -5
Big 4 - 1st -2
ACC Championships - 1st -10
River Landings Intercollegiate - 1st -10
Hootie at Bull's Bay - 5th -4
Chris Schenkel E-Z-Go - 1st -7
General Hackler Tournament - 1st -3
Puerto Rico Classic - 12th -5[FONT=times new roman,times]
[/FONT]Rice Intercollegiate - 5th +1
Bank of Tennessee Intercollegiate - 14th +2
Hartford Hawks Invitational - 1st -13
Maryland Intercollegiate - 4th -4

- His scoring average will be around 70.10, better then Tiger Wood's average during his sophmore season.

- He is ranked #1 in the golfstat cup standings
- He is ranked #7 in the world amateur golf rankings (not updated)

I'd give him 2nd in Canadian Amateur Rankings.

First would go to Nick Taylor of U. Wash, who is ranked higher than Hill I believe.

What school is Hill attend? I believe the PAC10 is the toughest division in college golf, where Taylor competes.

Matt Hill won the regional (same field as Taylor) and NCAA championship (same field as Taylor) I like Taylor but Hill is probably the better player right now. Taylor is playing incredible golf this week though. Both will be in the Canadian Open this year along with a couple other pro events.
