Van Nguyen
Van Nguyen lives in Oakland, California, a city which is among one of the best places in the entire world to be an avid walking golfer, the San Francisco Bay Area. Van started playing golf when he was 11 years-old by pure accident. Considering his family makeup - parents were refugees from Vietnam, working class household, not a single golfer in his family - no one would have predicted that he'd turn into the world’s biggest golf addict.
