Brent was introduced to the game at 5 by his father and grandfather. His grandfather, who Brent affectionately calls his ???golf buddy,??? saw that he had a natural talent at a young age, and encouraged him to pursue golf as his sport of choice growing up.
???My grandfather would drive me to almost every one of my tournaments growing up,??? recalled Brent. ???And the ones he didn???t we would talk every night about my round to see where I could improve going into the next one. He really inspired me to chase after my dream to become a professional golfer.???
Another source of inspiration for Brent is one of the most well-known players in the game — Kenny Perry.
