With strawberry blonde hair, blue eyes and a tall, slender frame, it’s impossible not to recognize the resemblance between Chandler Cantwell and his father, Tim. Turns out they share more than DNA.

After initially choosing baseball as his sport, Chandler followed his father into golf at 12. Tim was a longtime caddie at the famed Seminole Golf Club in Juno Beach and is the PGA teaching professional at PGA National Resort.

Chandler said watching Rory McIroy win the 2019 Players Championship spurred him to become serious about golf, but being exposed to the sport by his father made the move inevitable.
