Brian grew up in Tacoma, played golf at Ohio State and spent nine years as a pro, including three on the PGA Tour. He taught under David Leadbetter for about ten years before starting his own academy in 2002. How did he get into teaching? After missing his tour card by a stroke or in a playoff three years running, David Leadbetter called and invited him to teach on his team. What did he tell Y.E. Yang? To walk, talk, think and swing at the same pace. Yang mentioned it in his winning interview, and Brian had worried it was a dumb thing to say.
