As of his 36th birthday, Joel Dahmen has just a single win on the PGA Tour, but suffice it to say he’s drawn a legion of followers.
How could he not?
On top of being one of the breakout stars of the Netflix documentary “Full Swing,” Dahmen is known for his consistency on the course, his bucket hat, a self-deprecating style and a comical relationship with his longtime friend and caddie Geno Bonnalie.
Mumm was right. Dahmen’s traffic on PGA Tour digital channels saw a 2,000% bump soon after. Bonnalie also became a social media darling, with 800% more mentions on Twitter the week after the launch, according to Sports Business Journal.
Here’s a look at the affable golfer, through the years.
