Brad is a legend.
Keith Mitchell’s caddie is Brad Schneider, who played professionally for a long time, including 45 career KFT events along with 20 on Canada and Latin America Tours.
But his story is worth your time.
He was a very good junior player and right before college he was playing a touch football game when he got pulled backwards and broke his leg.
During surgery to repair it they discovered he had developed compartment syndrome which can cause serious damage to muscles.
It required 5 more surgeries in the next 8 days and left him unable to walk for 6 months.
He had to learn to walk again. He redshirted his first year at UCF, then had a great redshirt freshman year despite wearing a brace all year.
Then before his sophomore year Brad lost his mom to cancer and the same week lost his grandma.
Inexplicable tragedy, yet somehow became an all conference player and received the David Toms award for overcoming adversity.
He won multiple mini-tour events and had multiple seasons of some KFT status. However his leg was a problem, it was hard to practice and he and Keith are good friends.
It’s awesome to see him finding success.
In the words of Seve “I miss the putt, I miss the putt, I miss the putt, I make.”

Saluting the crowd after a 4-putt is inspirational. Keith this is excellent.
Facts!
eye opening interview with @K_m_Mitchell, guy poured his soul out on the mental grind of being a tour player*

@DJPie @TronCarterNLU

Absolutely electric scene last night at the @WWTChampionship celeb golf challenge. Keith Mitchell (on a team with @RiggleRob, Matt Horner, and Noah Kahan) needs an ace on the last hole to tie Team @harryhiggs1991. Kelley James with the call:
A great story on an even greater human being… King Oehmig. An amazing coach and mentor for all those that were lucky enough to know
him.

Good luck to all the young superstars at the @AJGAGolf tournament at my home track in Sea Island this week! Thanks to my great partner Mizuno for helping put on a top notch event.
My man and last year’s champion Tyler Watts off to a great start in the US Jr Am!
THE GUY!!! Are you kidding me?!?!?
Down to the wire 👀
@harryhiggs1991 shares the co-lead after an eagle hole-out on No. 18. Tanner Gore has one hole to go @AHChampGolf1.
Number 7 this week brings the ole “par” debate to life…
A hole plays an average of 3.5 strokes, does that make it:
13%Bad designed par 3
21%Easy drivable par 4
66%Great hole par irrelevant

The last thing golf needs is another existential crisis, but this is a worrying trend.
Golf is in a deep visor recession, with no end in site
By my count, zero visor-wearers inside the top 20, just one inside the top 50

Personal Foul, *roughing the media rights* (apparently that’s why it was taken down, I was just informed) 250 yard penalty, repeat 3rd shot from point in which ball last crossed planet earth!
Always enjoy chatting with the Mizuno team!
After a near miss in LA, #teammizuno ambassador @K_m_Mitchell joined us on the latest episode of Fresh Grooves: youtu.be/HokERdjMQaA
Love me some Riv…. What an amazing venue, if not the best. Loved the fight; hoping to get in position again soon. Also, stellar spots to eat in Santa Monica… Wally’s for the win.
Possibly the one shot where yelling “FORE” would accomplish absolutely nothing. #bankshot
7 PM! Don’t forget to grab a @TitosVodka to watch The Shorties Classic on @GolfChannel. Always a good time with the guys, especially when the @bobdoessports crew is dishing it out! #ad
Someone should consider giving @AaronFlener a record deal…. Thank me later.
Congrats to all the @cisco employees who made #clubcisco this year; Great time hanging with ya’ll in Hawaii for a fews days! Now on the long trek back for @JT_ThePostman wedding! #tuxonaplane
