It’s RBC Heritage week. The tournament known as the one where they play for the “Plaid Jacket” and the one where the lighthouse is. I will never forget my round there, I ended up carding a 77 from the tips with 2 penalties and 3 three putts. There’s only one tournament that I can say that I honestly can “relate” to on the PGA TOUR, and it’s this one because I can relate to specific holes and shots.
Also, a little bit of reflection on the last two weeks and what it meant for Japanese Golf. From Tsubasa Kajitani’s victory at the Augusta National Women’s Open, to Hideki Matsuyama’s ground-breaking victory at the Masters. And of course, the moment that stole the show, the ultimate sign of respect from Shota Hayafuji, Matsuyama’s caddie.
I've nearly done it all in the golf industry. From my beginnings as a Marshall, to becoming an Associate Professional. I climbed the ranks through being hardworking and hard-nosed and eventually became a Director of Golf. I've fought, scratched, and clawed for every opportunity. I've also played on Mini (Developmental) Tour's and in U.S. Open Qualifying.
I became interested in golf after a chance meeting of Mr. Arnold Palmer when he was in Hamilton, Ontario for the PGA Canadian Senior Open in 1996. Little did I know that this beautiful game would consume me and develop into one of my passions.
When I'm not writing, talking about, or playing golf I can be found with my Black Lab, outdoors, on a stream fly fishing, or playing guitar.
