Golf is an extremely expensive sport, and growing up, I didn't come from a lot, but my parents sacrificed a lot for me to compete, and my goals were their goals.

One of the things I learned growing up, a rule that I go by, is just never give up. That's one thing that I had to keep telling myself.

Essentially, my parents directed me in the right path. They were all for me turning professional and starting that journey as a family with my golf career.

I do my best on the golf course. I am learning about the business side of it. But I have a lot of great partners that help me with all those things.

It was the labor movement that helped secure so much of what we take for granted today. The 40-hour work week, the minimum wage, family leave, health insurance, Social Security, Medicare, retirement plans. The cornerstones of the middle-class security all bear the union label.

A lot of those ideal towns are all starting to look the same, the specifics are starting to disappear. So we need to retain a love for life, a love for one's family, a love for where one's really from.

My parents were very poor, but we never felt any sense of need or want. It was a very close, loving, tightly-knit family growing up, and I never felt any sense of deprivation or anything like that.

Most child actors, once they hit 18, once they hit 21, that's it. Even teenage kids often don't make the transition.
