Brandt Snedeker
Golf is an outdoor sport where player as an individual or from varied teams strike a ball targeting a hole using various clubs. The game basically originated from Scotland and has been played for at least five centuries in the British Isles. The two basic forms of playing golf are match play and stroke play.
Brandt Snedeker is one of the proficient golf players who earned a reputed position for himself at the Nationwide Tour. Nationwide Tour is the developmental tour for the US based PGA, Professional Golfers’ Association Tour, and features professional golfers who have either failed to score well at the Qualifying School to earn their PGA Tour card, or who have done so but then failed to win enough money to stay at that level.
Snedeker was born in Nashville suburb of Tennessee. He is a 6 feet 1 inch tall contender with a weight of 185 pounds who made the cut in 14 of 24 events on the 2005 Nationwide Tour, with four top-10 finishes. He opened the 2005 season with a Tied 63rd finish at the BellSouth Panama Championship with three consecutive top-10 performances, including Tied 5th at the Jacob's Creek Open Championship and Tied 6th at the ING New Zealand PGA Championship.
Snedeker finished Tied 41st at the 2004 Masters Tournament. In remaining 10 starts on the PGA Tour, he made the cut in four with Tied 27th at the EDS, Electronic Data Systems Byron Nelson Championship. He finished inside the top 25 in six events during the 2004 season and ranked number 45 on the official money list, with 129,358 dollar earnings. After opening his season with a Tied 43rd at the Cox Classic, Snedeker came back in next week with a solo second place finish at the Price Cutter Charity Championship.
Snedeker’s superior approach and dedication towards the sport made him surpass the other players of his epoch. However, he gained prominence only after he won the first Nationwide Championship title in his career and became an international celebrity and a symbol of hope to millions.
