| Career Highlights | |
|
2011: Monday qualifier at the South Georgia Classic, where he finished T10. Followed up a week later with a T3 at the Stadion Classic at UGA where he collected enough money to earn status as a Special Temporary Member for the remainder of the season. Payday moved him to No. 11 on the money list. Had a solid three-week stretch in mid-summer, highlighted by a T9 at the Nationwide Children's Hospital Invitational. 2010: Began the year with no status on Tour and attempted to Monday-qualify on several occasions. Successfully qualified into the field at the Christmas in October Classic and finished T23, which earned him a spot in the Northeast Pennsylvania Classic. Was T13 in Scranton, which earned him a start at the Mexico Open. First top-10 of the year came in Mexico, where he finished T7 despite opening with a 3-over 75 that had him tied for 67th after one round. 2006: Made the cut in 23 of 28 starts during his rookie season on the Nationwide Tour, with one top-10 outing. Finished the year No. 68 on the money list, with $86,164. Despite making the cut in 12 of his first 13 starts—including six top-25 finishes—did not crack the top 10 for the first time until his 13th start of the year, a T7 showing at the Knoxville Open. 2005: Enjoyed a career-best T9 at the Albertsons Boise Open. In his only start on the PGA TOUR, shot a 9-under 63 in the first round to tie Glen Day for the first-round lead at the 2005 B.C. Open. Finished T13. 2004: Made three TOUR starts, with a T56 at the B.C. Open his best outing. |
