Q&A

  • Q: How did you get into golf?

    I would ride in the golf cart with my dad at Big Sky Golf Club when I was younger. I brought out soccer balls, roller blades, frisbees, and even a hockey stick and tennis ball to play hockey on the cart paths. I would play football and play fetch with our dog too. As time went on I would start to hit more and more shots until I was playing whole rounds when I was 7. I grew up on a golf course so that is probably how I got into golf.

  • Q: What is something most people don’t know about you? Any hidden talents?

    Mazes – For some reason I can do mazes fast.

  • Q: What is the best thing about your hometown?

    There are some really nice golf courses.

  • Q: Do you have any superstitions?

    I never use a golf ball with the number 5 and I always have one marker and two tees in my left pocket.

  • Q: If you could have a walk-up song on the first tee box, what would it be?

    “Stayin’ Alive” by the Bee Gees.
