“Jacob comes from a strong golfing family and has been a Tiger for a long time. We are excited to have him join our program. Jacob is realizing how good he can be at this game and all his hard work is paying off. He possesses great technique with great flow to his swing and game. He is also a fantastic student and will raise the bar in this area of our team as well.”
