LOS ANGELES — Only a few years ago, when he was finishing up a solid but unspectacular college golfing career, Jacob Solomon created a LinkedIn profile for himself and attached a résumé.
While Solomon won the California state championship with an eagle putt as a high school senior and earned the chance to play at Auburn, high-level professional golf was still a distant dream to him back then. Even after he earned second-team all-SEC honors as a senior in 2019, Solomon still was nowhere-near PGA-ready.
What has changed more than anything for Solomon is his belief in himself. Consistently making cuts on the Canadian Tour and the Korn Ferry Tour has shown him he’s capable of achieving more than he realized. Solomon admits nerves got to him standing over his first tee shot, but he quickly steadied himself after that ball found the right rough. He took advantage of the soft greens and drizzly morning conditions for much of his round before scoring back-to-back bogeys on the challenging par-4 16th and 17th.
