Personal

If he weren't a golfer, says he would be an architect.

Enjoys playing the drums.

Fan of the Denver Broncos.

Dream foursome would include his dad, Arnold Palmer and Lee Trevino.

Not many people know he is the only person to make a hole-in-one on a par-4 in the U.S. Public Links Championship.

Supports the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes.

Wants to own a sports team someday.

While attempting to make his mom a gift when he was in the second grade, he sliced his right eye with a shard of PVC pipe. As the eye healed, scar tissue developed. The scar tissue is still there, and his vision is cloudy. Has poor depth perception out of his right eye.

Amateur Highlights

Won the Valley Championship three times at Clovis East High School in California.

Won the Mountain West Conference Championship and a total of five college tournaments.
