“I lost two good friends of mine in the past month. One of them was Kenny Lee, a guy from Vegas, that he’s a very influential person in Vegas who passed away. And my childhood friend, Dusty Smith, that I grew up playing golf with at Western Hills Country Club in California. He died of a heart attack. And it really hit me,” said Na, as his voice choked.  

Moreover, Kevin said he has memories of him coming to the Masters and said Dusty even has caddied for Kevin. “He caddied for me U.S. Junior, U.S. Am, at pro golf events. I mean, I’ve never cried so much in the past month. I think he was up there helping us out. And I want to thank both of them, and I think it wouldn’t have been possible without them.”
