NOTEBOOK | |
Started playing golf at age: Six Favorite course to play: Pinehurst #2 and Pumpkin Ridge Favorite club in bag: My 7 wood because I end up using it a lot Most memorable moment at UT: When I was a host for the Golf Channel when they came to the campus to film College Central. I'd like to play a round with: Phil Mickelson because he is my favorite. I love his attitude and composure on the course. He has the best short game and is very creative around the greens. I would love to watch and learn. Word that describes my game: Consistent. Favorite movie: Father of the Bride is my all time favorite movie. Dream course to play at: Augusta Most memorable shot: One of my most memorable shots would be the putt that I had to make to win the State High School Championship. I had lost many tournaments that year by one shot and to sink that putt was a great feeling! Nobody knows: Exactly how many times that I have fallen down the stairs at UT, that I am a Nutrition freak, or that I was a Pat's Pal when I was a kid. Favorite class at UT: Nutrition and Anatomy Person in history you'd like to meet: Charles Schulz who created the cartoon PEANUTS Favorite sport besides golf: Gymnastics
