Lists Geoff Jones as an instructor. Cites winning the Nationwide Tour's Steamtown Classic in Scranton, PA, as his biggest thrill in golf and the birth of his children as his biggest thrill away from the game. First car was a 1981 Chevrolet truck. Favorite course to play is the Honors Course in Chattanooga, TN, and would like to play Augusta National. Favorite pro team is the Texas Rangers, and his favorite athlete to watch is pitcher Cliff Lee. Likes to watch the Outdoor Channel, and his favorite movie is "Seabiscuit." George Strait is his favorite entertainer, and Hawaii is his favorite vacation spot. Would round out his dream foursome with Ben Hogan, Byron Nelson and Jack Nicklaus. |
