Personal

Attended Chico High School in Chico, Calif.

Older brother, Daniel, played golf two years at Hawaii-Hilo.

First hole-in-one was on a par 4, the 16th hole at Southern Highlands GC in Las Vegas.

Lists "Entourage" and "Billy Madison" as his favorite movies.

Not many people know that he played basketball in high school.

Would trade places with Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson for a day because "he is a very successful man and an incredibly hard worker."
