5. Kisner picked up the game from his father, Steve. In 2014 at the US Open, Kisner surprised his dad on Father’s Day by getting him to caddie for him over the last few holes. “I realised the reason he wanted me to do it, so I couldn’t turn it down,” Steve said. “I was choked up, it means a lot.”
6. Kevin Kisner surprised his long-term caddie Duane Bock in 2017 by buying him a Ford F-150 truck.
7. Kisner has made one appearance for the United States and that came at the 2017 Presidents Cup. He produced three points from four matches during the event, which included two halved matches and two victories.
8. Kisner went to the University of Georgia and studied business Management. He is still a proud Georgia Bulldog and often has bets with people like Justin Thomas over college sports. One one occasion, Kisner had to wear an Alabama Crimson Tide jersey out on the course which he did not enjoy!
