Philip turned Professional in 1983 and has been a PGA Class A member since 1992. Philip grew up in a military family and fell in love with the game of golf at the age of 10. His father started him early, but not before he learned to caddie. Philip has traveled most of the world, and learned to play and compete in places like Guam and England. Philip has competed in several mini-tour events including the 1983 Space Coast Tour in Daytona, Florida. Since moving to Austin in 1984, he has qualified to play in four Nike events. His first Austin job was at Balcones C.C. and for a short while, Sun City. In 2000 he joined the Great Hills team and says "It was the perfect club at the perfect time." He loves teaching and is not shy about sharing his knowledge learned from Harry Cooper and Jimmy Ballard. Philip is noted for being one of the contenders in each tournament that he competes in with his peers. The PING Golf Company has recognized him as the 2001 Club Fitter of the Year.
