Do you have a nickname on Tour and what is the story behind how it was given to you?
Deep Dish: I worked at Pizza Hut and another small pizza restaurant for over 20 years before I started caddying.
Cheetoh: A former boss (Doug LaBelle II) started calling me that because he said I had an orange shirt that I wore several times per week that made me look like a big Cheetoh.
First Class: Many players call me first class as they often see me sitting in first class while traveling.
What is your favorite stop on Tour and why?
Non Major: The Sony in Honolulu, HI, great place to start off the calendar year and I’ve had great success there over the years.
Major: Augusta National, it is one of the most special places in golf, so much tradition and golf excellence.
