When did you start playing golf and why?
At the age of 15 when me and my brother took my father’s old clubs and just started whackin' it across our lawn. I mean it was a big lawn, but soon we had to find a bigger playground. Shortly after I scored 72 Stableford points in my first tournament, so I stuck with it.  

Your current handicap?
4,4

Your home Golf Club?
Is Maxlrain Golf Course a bit south of Munich, which is a pretty down to earth club but with a challenging design and kick ass standards in green keeping thanks to my buddy Howie

Best trick on and off the green?
10 Meters of backspin with my new Vice Pro balls.

Favorite place to play?
Gut Häusern north of Munich. Though course, yet it’s still possible to score big time if you’re willing to risk one or the other long shot

Your "Dream Flight"? Who would be with you on the green?
I guess that would be Rory, Bubba and Poults, so I can outdrive at least one of them.

Golf is... 
A real sport, ladies and gentlemen. Better start believing it.

Looking forward to KING of GREENS 2014, because...
Because missing it by one shot makes me next in the line of succession to the throne.

Best memories of KING of GREENS 2013?

Romain’s trick shot show was unreal. After his video I thought this was never possible, but he proved we wrong on the spot. 

Any messages to your KING of GREENS competitors before hitting the green?
I play Bubba golf. Self-taught, aggressive long-distance ball whacking. He won himself a green jacket but I’m gonna win me a crown...
