Personal

• He was a better soccer player growing up but chose golf when the letter inviting him to join the elite soccer program in New Zealand was never forwarded to his home.
• No one else in his family plays golf; he got started after playing with one of his friend's parents.
• Had a freak skateboarding accident as a freshman in college which sidelined him for four months. The souvenir from the accident is a titanium plate and seven screws for a new clavicle; he jokes it helps him it up on his driver.
• He would like to one day start a foundation in New Zealand to make golf more accessible.
• Aspirations include playing guitar in concert.
• His earliest golf memory is watching Tiger Woods hole an eagle putt on the 13th at Torrey Pines during the 2008 U.S. Open.
• His dad is originally from the United Kingdom and met his mother while on holiday in New Zealand.
