Personal

Attended Dalton (Ga.) High School.

Turned to golf after suffering too many football injuries.

Favorite golf memory was shooting nine-hole 69 on his seventh birthday, playing with his dad, grandfather, uncle and cousin after receiving his first set of clubs.

If not a professional golfer, would like to work for a large athletic brand in its marketing department.

Uses a 1965 quarter to mark his ball.

Favorite movies are "Secretariat," "Saving Private Ryan" and "Gladiator." Favorite entertainer is Luke Bryan, and favorite athlete is Peyton Manning. Favorite TV show is "The Big Bang Theory" and anything on the Outdoor Channel and Military Channel. Favorite app is Candy Crush. Favorite team is the Alabama Crimson Tide.

Headcover is "Big Al" (the University of Alabama mascot).

Would like to be Manning for a day "to play quarterback one game."

Favorite quote is from Joshua 1:9 in the Bible: "Be strong and courageous, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."

Along with wife sponsors a young boy in Uganda through an organization called Raise the Roof. The couple also supports the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and the College Golf Fellowship.
