    Got his start in golf from his dad at age 3. Biggest thrill in golf is overcoming mental obstacles. Lists Gary Player, Tom Watson, Nick Faldo and his parents as his heroes. Was on the TV show "The Weakest Link" in 2001. Non-golf-related jobs held include knife salesman and membership director at a country club. He and his brother were named after Player and Lee Trevino. His two sons are named after Faldo and Sandy Lyle, whose real first name is Alexander. Favorite golf course is the Links of North Dakota. Would most like to play Bandon Dunes...Never travels without a DVD player and photos of his family...First car was a Ford Fiesta, and he currently drives a Ford Taurus...Favorite college team is the Auburn Tigers. Favorite professional team is Liverpool Football Club of the Premier League...Lucky charm is a five-pence coin to mark his ball...Wears light blue in the final round to match his eyes for photos...Favorite food is fresh farm-grown fruit. Favorite athlete is Cristiano Ronaldo...Favorite cities are Sydney, Australia, London, England, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, San Francisco, CA, and Boise, ID...Would round out his dream foursome with Harry Vardon, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods. Not many people know that he would rather score the winning goal for England in the World Cup than win the British Open. Bucket list includes doing the Ashes Cricket Tour to Australia with the Barmy Army.
