Player feature: Meet Vijay Verma
When did you start playing golf?
I started playing golf in 1992
What is the best course you have played?
It’s tough to pick one but The Colonial Country Club. If we are talking Two-Man Tour courses, Horseshoe Bay Apple Rock.
Any favorite golf memories? Or best round?
One of my favorite days was about 15-16 years ago, 3-man scramble at tour 18 Dallas with my buddy Joe Borden and my son Nate as partners. Great memories on the course followed by dinner with Joe Warring at Cristina’s restaurant in Flower Mound, TX.
Do you have a home course?
I have had many over the years. It’s currently Westridge Golf course in McKinney, TX.
What is your profession?
I’m a talent acquisition consultant
Where are you from?
I was born in Louisiana and grew up in New Delhi India. Now, I have been in the DFW area for 35 years!
What's your average score or handicap index?
Not good - 83 would be average but I haven’t kept handicap since 1996
How did you hear about the Two-Man Tour?
I got a recommendation from other players that participated before.
What is your favorite part about playing in the Two-Man Tour events?
I love the format, competition, camaraderie and an opportunity to be an ambassador/host for the weekend!
Where would you like to see Joe take the tour in coming years?
I’m thrilled to see continued growth and expansion over the last few years into Wisconsin, North Texas, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana and hope to possibly see one-day qualifiers return in some fashion.
