An American PGA Tour Pro finished the 2023 Wells Fargo Championship with a one-over 72, giving him a five-under total for the competition and a tie for 23rd place. He played well in the second and third rounds at Quail Hollow, shooting a combined seven-under-par total. However, he battled with his approach shots, losing 2.655 strokes and only hitting nine of the 18 greens in regulation. 

He is well-known for his steady play and reliable ball striking on the course.
