Casey is from Eugene, Oregon, he stands 6-2, weighs 170 lbs. Turned pro in 1995. He played briefly with Tiger Woods at Stanford. He successfully sued the PGA Tour for the right to use a golf cart during tournament play. He was a hot topic for many 19th holes around the country. I even remember almost getting into a fight with my good friend Ben who defended him in using the cart, I felt for Casey but said, if that's the case, then if some free safety in the NFL one day would be able to have some handicap system in football to his advantage. Or some major leaguer might have an extra strike instead of three because his eyes can't focus. My point was back then, and still to this day is I don't think in that case, he should have had the right to use a cart. I don't know. Call me mean, call me heartless, but I just did not see that. But God Bless him.
This is a post for those who were wondering, "Hey what happened to Casey?"
