Luke Clanton didn’t grow up in a family with generations of golfers. He became interested in the sport and his dad, David, became a quick study, learning what he could about a golfer’s swing.
“Mom and dad didn’t play too much golf growing up,” Clanton said on Wednesday. “My dad actually learned the golf swing off a magazine, which was funny. I was about like 6, 7 years old, and he learned it off of Justin Rose. So it was pretty cool to kind of go through the journey with him. He was my teacher until I was about 16 years old, and we were kind of clueless. But all my dad knew was to go out and compete and just be the best he can.”
