We all know that making it big on the PGA Tour doesn’t come easy, and only a few golfers get to call themselves PGA Tour pros. Every year a fresh wave of talented golfers make themselves known in the world of golf, but only a select few manage to leave a lasting impact, and the latter is exactly what Joe Highsmith is trying to do.
Highsmith’s journey to the PGA Tour hasn’t been an easy one. Having turned pro in 2022, he faced numerous setbacks that made it tough to break into the PGA Tour, but his hard work paid off when he secured his Tour card in 2023 for 2024 by finishing in the top 30 in the Korn Ferry Tour (KFT) point list. So, how does the golfer do this? Well, he surely has his Titleist equipment to thank!
