Has always had this unique ability to remember every shot he’s hit

Baseball was his first passion even though he started playing golf at an early ageStopped playing golf at 8-years old and remembers starting to play golf again on his 15th birthday after his grandfather asked him if he wanted to play

He would soon be able to beat his grandfather and all of his friendsAttended Wofford College with coach Dan O’Connell

Didn’t turn pro until 2004 even though he finished college in 2001

Finally earned his PGA Tour card in 2010 and would win his first tournament (The Memorial Tournament) in 2016Well-documented story of Tiger Woods telling William that he was an idiot after Tiger heard William didn’t look at the leaderboard during tournaments
