“I’ve worked with a few different coaches. I think Chip Engelland when I was in Oklahoma was a big one for me, and he gave me a lot of confidence going forward. Then my first year in Chicago, I had a guy called Peter Patton that I worked with a lot, and he was another one.”
“I’ve been very fortunate to be around guys who know how to instill confidence in you, tweak mechanics and kind of get you in the right direction.”
