No one will be surprised that Cameron Champ’s favorite club in the bag is driver (after all, he did lead the Tour in driving distance in 2019). Champ, at age 24, has already won two PGA Tour titles and his big drives bring him plenty of attention.
In answering a series of quick-hitting questions from Golfweek, Champ revealed he has benefited from the tutelage of another long hitter on Tour, Bubba Watson.
“He took me under his wing a little bit,” Champ said in naming Watson as one of his favorite Tour players to be paired with.
What else did we learn about Champ? He’s big on snacks (particularly a certain kind of protein ball that one physio in particular tends to keep on hand), is superstitious about his golf ball number and will always remember a very clutch hooded 6-iron he hit to seal his 2019 Sanderson Farms Championship title.
Check out what else he had to offer.
