Steve Jones - Part 1 (The Early Years)

FORE the Good of the Game

Join us for this first of our four-part interview with 1996 U.S. Open Champion Steve Jones. After settling in to live in Yuma, Colorado at age 11 with his five brothers Steve was quickly introduced to golf by his father. The entire family enjoyed their $100 a year membership at Indian Hills Golf Club and this bunker-less nine-hole layout is where a future champion's game was born. A multi-sport athlete, Steve eventually focused on golf and played his collegiate golf at the University of Colorado under coach Mark Simpson. Listen in as Steve talks about his early influencers, lessons from some of the game's greats and losing a playoff to a beer-swigging Dave Hill in the Colorado Open. You'll enjoy some terrific stories as Steve Jones reflects on his early years, "FORE the Good of the Game."
