Says winning the 2006 NCAA Championship is his biggest thrill in golf, and his wedding day is his biggest thrill outside of the game.

Never travels without his computer.

Favorite teams are Oklahoma State and the Texas Rangers. Favorite course to play is the Honors Course in Chattanooga, TN. Would like to play Augusta National. George Strait is his favorite entertainer, and LeBron James is his favorite athlete to watch. Favorite TV show is "House," and "Braveheart" is his favorite movie. Favorite food is steak. Favorite cities to visit are Port Aransas, TX, and Tilden, TX, where his family has a ranch.

Would round out his dream foursome with his dad, John Wayne and Byron Nelson.

Bucket list includes getting his pilot's license, learning to surf and becoming a cattle rancher when he's done playing golf.
