Talk about
starting the new year off with a bang! Congratulations to Team McGladrey Member Zach Johnson on his win at the
Hyundai Tournament of Champions this past week in Kapalua, HI! Fun fact about
this win is this is the start of Zach’s 11th PGA TOUR season and he
just won for the 11th time! Check out the video the PGA TOUR posted
of the top five shots of the week (week of Jan. 7). Zach’s final round, second
hole, second shot was #1. Incredible job!
Jumping over
an island, this week, Zach is in Honolulu, for the Sony Open in Hawaii. Does
anyone feel back-to-back wins coming? Teeing off at 12:30pm, Zach is in group
30. Even though Zach is the only Team McGladrey member there, you may recognize
a few extended members in the McGladrey family: Heath Slocum (2010 McGladrey
Classic winner), Tommy “Two Gloves” Gainey (2012 McGladrey Classic winner), and
Chris Kirk (2013 McGladrey Classic winner). Best of luck to the boys! Who are
you rooting for at the Sony Open?
Speaking of
other Team McGladrey members, earlier this week, Chris DiMarco was at on the Golf
Channel’s Morning Drive giving tips on playing in windy conditions and swing speed. If these interest you,
check out some of the blog
posts Mark Love, Executive Director of the Davis Love
Foundation, shared on The McGladrey Classic website. He, too, discusses tips
for playing in the wind.
To wrap this
post up, we just want to say welcome back and happy new year! We hope everyone
had a wonderful holiday break and was able to take some time to relax with
friends and family. Check back next week for more updates!
