Jason and 2012...the blend in pending
At the age of 26 and with a highly positive average of 318.6, Ontario golfer, Jason Kokrak is all set and prepared to whole-heatedly welcome the upcoming year 2012.
With a new energy and vibrancy for adding some more victories, cash and trophies to his highly aspiring career in golf, he is all geared up.
After his victorious hegemony in the amateur category of golf for two consecutive years in 2006 and 2007, Jason was all set to explore other frontiers that can help him in acquiring greater game and fame in golf.
A look at the career timeline of this player provides a comprehensible manifestation of the potential and the skill this young blood in golf can demonstrate.
Once setting his grip on the club and sharpening his mathematical skills at the amateur level, Jason began marching towards the ultimate destination of every golf player.
The PGA Tour and his training at the amateur level did produce some positive results for him and these later materialised in his performance.
He was able to deliver in the 2010 PGA Tour event that provided his career a major breakthrough.
Alongside, it applied the very same rules on his bank account figures, as he ended up being the leading money maker in the tournament also.
The very next year, 2011, also turned out to be a highly optimistic year for him, as his procession of accrediting victories to his name did not cease at all.
This can also be vindicated from the fact that even after taking part in just three events in the entire year.
After winning the Championship at St. James Plantation and the Donald Ross Championship, he wore a smile after stabilising his second position at the eGolf Tour's money list.
According to golf experts and pundits, Jason and golf have an old relationship that can easily be linked to his days of childhood.
Since his very early years, he has been observing people in his family, like his father and grandfather, playing golf.
It was by observing them that he began to nurture his very own interest in the sport.
For him, they were people who could always counsel and guide him on the mistakes and loopholes he was making.
That enabled him to immediately rectify his faults and above all, these people were in-house and not some outsider golf tutors.
However, apart from the guidance and teachings about the game he has acquired from his family members, he gives more credit of developing his interest for golf into passion to icons like Arnold Palmer and the legendary Jack Nicklaus.
According to Jason, it was these players who actually taught them the actual art of playing golf and enjoying the sport at the same time.
Apart from these two, Mark O’Meara has also been his personal favourite when it comes to amalgamating golf with style.
It is pre-dominantly direct or indirect contributions made by all these personalities that have helped him in developing and subsequently sharpening his skills in golf with the passage of time.
Jason, so far has extremely impressive figures, as he wrapped up the Nationwide Tour Championship with 67, 67, 75 and 75, respectively.
With such overwhelmingly sanguine figures and Jason is all set to welcome all Freddies coming to PGA Tour with a club in his hand disguised as a chainsaw.
