Humbled to be included in this list. Thank you @golfdigest and those who voted for me. It is a great honor and I don’t take it lightly. The drive is still there to help as many people as best I can. Also big shoutouts @scott_gardiner_golfinstruction @patricksullivangolf @ryancrawleygolf on achieving this award. by @back9golf

What an amazing week. So proud of my girl @brooke_matthews1 @arkansaswgolf . She did awesome. Augusta is amazing and was better than even I imagined. #builtatb9 #taylormadegolf #pxggolf by @back9golf

@ethanbartelsgolf has been working on speed for a few months now. We started in the 160’s and now he is cruising 182 mph plus. With these gains in total driving, which is playable distance off the tee, his scores have dropped remarkably. You better hit it far but it needs to be playable. No good hitting it far in the bush by @back9golf

@_gracekilcrease_ showing that pure love, passion and emotions that this great game instills in all of us. Pure Joy by @back9golf

Got a Dm regarding the tapping of the left foot to initiate the start of a pitching motion. Basically I use it to firstly create a rhythm or cadence for the pitch shot because most people can tap to a rhythm or beat. Secondly I use it to alleviate tension( especially in the lower body) and to create a trigger to start the motion and keep everything moving free and dynamic. by @back9golf

The putting gauntlet I get the kids doing before or after lessons. 5 stations 5-10 in row at each station to help the stroke in check. by @back9golf

Big shout @logan__mayo @umsl_golf for capturing his second individual collegiate win. The kid stripes it. I usually say straight is difficult to repeat and playing a little curve helps but Logan is like nah I’ll just play frozen ropes 😂 Well done mate it’s fun to watch ball forking this good. by @back9golf

Big Shoutout @emmersonfd for getting her first collegiate win in Hot Springs. There are milestones that everyone who plays college golf wants to achieve and this is a big one near the top of the list. Well done Emmerson. You deserve this reward for all the dedication, endeavor and hard work. Seeing you smile is rewarding and puts a smile on my face. by @back9golf

Also headed to Q School is @_gracekilcrease_ . I’ve know Grace since she was a sophomore at Harber High School and the time and dedication she has put into her game is exemplary. Grace went on to have a stellar college career at Oklahoma State @cowgirlgolf where she had a college win 🏆 at Pebble Beach. The real highlight was qualifying for the Women’s Masters @anwagolf at Augusta National. Grace is a stripe show. Let’s all wish her luck at Q School by @back9golf

Good luck @juliamisemer13 has she heads off for Q School next week. I’ve been lucky enough to know Julia since she was a junior in Kansas City. She excelled in her college career @arizonawgolf and has played in multiple US Women’s Open and US Women’s Amateurs and even took out the no 1 at Chambers Bay. Let’s all wish Julia the best of luck 💪 by @back9golf

The game is changing even since I was last competing. You better bring it now as all these elite kids can send it. My man @britt.coy @mssugolf just striping 5 irons from 229 yards and launching 3 woods at 174 mph ball speeds by @back9golf
