I obviously haven't seen a resume, only his LinkedIn.
I don't think he has a college degree and if he does, I doubt it's in Turf Management. His LinkedIn says he has a "Certificate" in Turf Manaagement from Penn State.
The Certificate Program at Penn State is offered to Golf Superintendents around the country. It's a "course", not a program. If I'm not mistaken, it's an online course that costs about $5000.
If that's indeed what he has, it's a long way away from a Turf Management Degree, from the #1 Agronomy program in the world.
