I don’t know if I’m a pro golfer or if I’m a YouTuber yet, so I mean, I still have a dream if I was given a PGA TOUR card tomorrow that I would be just totally over the moon and be so stoked.
I grew up playing majority of my time in Dallas-Fort Worth area in Texas. Born East Coast, moved to Texas when I was younger.
Kind of freshman, sophomore year of high school, I started to realize, okay, every now and then I could be decent at this. I’m kind of in a unique position where I was here last year, just kind of on the other side of things. I was caddying for my buddy Luke.
To play well on Monday and earn that chance to play a PGA TOUR event here in Myrtle Beach, definitely a lot of validation, but at the same time, there would probably be another wave of “holy crap, now I better actually go out there and not embarrass myself.” I mean, it would obviously just be, it’d be fantastic.
Sean Walsh. I’m from Keller, Texas. As far as a home course, I say that I have friends with boats, I don’t have a boat. And what I expect to shoot, I’d say two under.
I win on Monday, it would mean a lot to me. I mean, my hard work and dedication got me here and it’ll bring me there and to compete with the best. I grew up in Blacksburg, Virginia. Growing up, my grandpa got me into the game and he took me out there every day after school. Got me into it. Fell in love, I’d say around the age of six or seven and never looked back.
Congressional is an amazing course to play. Ball striking was pretty good that week. I didn’t have many bogeys, but I played great. That finish definitely helped me a lot with my mindset definitely getting here, and so definitely helped.
My name is Jake Albert. My hometown is Blacksburg, Virginia, and my home course is Blacksburg Country Club, and I expect to shoot a 67 on Monday.
