If you could put together your dream foursome for an 18-hole round of golf, who would it be and where would you play?

If I could put together my dream foursome, I would want to play with Phil Mickelson, Rory McIlroy, and Adam Scott at Augusta National.

If you could invite anyone — living or from the past — to spend a weekend with you at Centre, who would it be and why?

If I could invite anyone to spend a weekend with me at Centre, it would be my best friend Grace. She is always busy with golf at UK and me at Centre so I never get to see her for a full weekend. It would be nice just to have a close friend get to stay with me for a couple of days.  

When you get frustrated on the golf course, what keeps you from losing your poise/cool?

When I get frustrated on the golf course, I keep my poise/cool by remembering that it is just a game and that “the sun will come up tomorrow” like my Dad always says.

Ten years from now, what do you hope to be doing?

Ten years from now I hope to have a steady career and be starting a family. I also hope to still be playing golf recreationally and have travelled to multiple countries.
