Personal

Likes to surf and watch Australian Rules Football but says his favorite sport is cricket. Says it's tough to explain cricket to Americans, but "it's a lot like golf because it lasts a long time, you have to pace yourself, requires strategic decision making, and you must take chances at the right time."
Lists Greg Norman as one of his heroes as a youngster but modeled his game after Ernie Els.
Launched the Begin Again Foundation in 2016. Inspired by wife Audrey's near death experience in April 2015, the Begin Again Foundation was born out of a fiery passion for helping others. The foundation works to bring life's most pressing needs to families experiencing medical and life crises.
