Collin Morikawa shares what he does in his spare time
In an exclusive interview with GQ, Collin Morikawa opened up about his personal and professional life. He talked about what he does in his spare time away from the greens. He said:
"Me and my wife [Katherine] have our dog, Koa. He's a tiny little golden doodle. We travel with him, honestly, probably 80% of the time, which is awesome, and he is essentially our life. It’s all about being outdoors so we go on walks and if my wife wants to run, I might end up hopping on the bike."
Meanwhile, on the greens, this season Collin Morikawa has played in 15 tournaments and recorded some decent finishes. He started the season at The Sentry and finished in solo second place.
He was the runner-up at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, while his other decent finishes of this season are T10 at The Players Championship, T8 at Rocket Classic, and T17 at Truist Championship.
However, in his last outing at the Genesis Scottish Open, he struggled with his game and missed the cut after two rounds of 68 and 76.
