Best effort was a T21 at the Cox Classic where he posted back-to-back 64s in the second and third rounds. 2010: Made the cut in eight of 24 starts on the Nationwide Tour but did not register any top-25 finishes. Best week was a T30 at the WNB Golf Classic. 2009: Was T6 at the season-opening Panama Digicel Championship, his best finish in 25 starts.

Earned his first career Tour win at the South Georgia Classic the following week, topping Bryce Molder and Greg Owen by four strokes. Began the tournament with a 4-under 68 to trail first-round leader Garth Mulroy by one shot. A 3-under 69 in the second round moved him into a lead that he wouldn't relinquish.
