Will Chandler is tied for the lead at the KFT.
(Stick w me for the long one)
Will Chandler always wanted to go to Georgia. His parents went there and his brother was already there when he graduated high school.
So he was pretty bad at being recruited cause he told everyone he was going to Georgia.
And he went to Georgia. Played all 4 years, but only played a few events a year. Most were as an individual (his score doesn’t count toward the team)
His last fall there he only played one event. Always worked his ass off, both on and off the course. Made honor roll. Continued to improve.
Turned pro grinded on mini-tours, kept working. Went to Canada last year and struggled, finished 81st in points. Missed at Q-school.
But played solid on the G Pro Tour.
Played a monday Q in Dallas in April. Made the cut in his first ever KFT start.
Made it thru another Monday and made another cut in June.
Another Monday Q in July, made the cut and finished 10th in July. That Earned him a spot in the next week’s field. Made the cut again.
Drove 6 hours that night to the next days Monday but missed.
ANOTHER successful Monday last week in Nebraska, this time in playoff. Another made cut.
Earned enough non-member points to earn a spot in this week’s field. Needed to make to make it into the first KFT finals event.
Now he’s 18 holes from changing his life.
Mondays.
Our team chaplain, @tcsettles, helps us maintain perspective on the field and in life. His new book, “Better Together,” might be my favorite Christmas present this year. Grab your copy and share with your family & friends. Go Dawgs!
