Bio
Gave up serious dirt-bike riding after an accident prior to his freshman year in high school resulted in a couple of broken bones in his foot. His father, Rod, who owns a trucking company, enjoyed riding dirt bikes and won the 1986 Baja 1000 while racing for a Yamaha team.
His middle name comes from his grandfather, Taka Tanaka.
Started playing golf at age 3.
