"That's the guy who downed three beers before qualifying for this" is the kind of sentence that Nick Bienz might well hear a few times as he makes his way around Detroit Golf Club at the Rocket Mortgage Classic this week. The story behind how he arrived there is fantastic.
After playing college golf and graduating from Indiana University-Indianapolis (formerly IUPUI) in 2019, the 2023 Indiana Open champion set about trying to forge a path to the paid ranks. Bienz opted to turn pro and began working part-time at Golf Galaxy to help fund his career while practicing hard when off the clock.
