Bio

The physics major has been nicknamed by many, the Mad Scientist. Credits Homer Kelly's book, The Golfing Machine, for many of his swing principles and philosophies. Utilizes an unconventional approach of all of his irons being the same length, 37 1/2 inches, which is the average length of a 7-iron shaft (his favorite club). Has names for all of his clubs, for example his 60-degree wedge is named "The King" after 1960 Masters champion Arnold Palmer and his 6-iron is named "Juniper" after the sixth hole at Augusta National.

Wears a Ben Hogan-style cap during tournament rounds on the PGA TOUR.
