He has played golf since his teenage years and even has a degree in golf course management from the San Diego Golf Academy.

Despite having qualified for two U.S. Opens (in 2007 and 2018) and four PGA Championships (in 2014, 2016, 2018, and 2022), he had never made the cut, with his lowest 36-hole score being eight over par.
