Personal

Basically a self-taught player but lists Mitch Lowe, Marshall Smith and Mike Owen as instructors.

Says playing his rookie season on the PGA TOUR as his biggest thrill in golf and the birth of his twins as his biggest thrill outside golf.

Always marks his ball with his coin heads-up.

Favorite course is Muirfield Village and would like to play Augusta National. Favorite teams are Ohio State University and the San Jose Sharks. Favorite TV show is "Entourage" and "Green Eggs and Ham" is his favorite book. Mexican is his favorite food. Andre Agassi is his favorite athlete to watch.

Dallas and Reno are his favorite cities to visit, and Maui is his favorite vacation spot.

One player in his dream foursome would be his father.

Bucket list includes retiring soon.
