Martin Jimenez
PERSONAL - I think Martin jokes but I hope all he says is true. He’s a former male stripper who now sells used golf balls door to door to underprivileged husbands who aren’t allowed to go to the driving range during the week… aka stay at home husbands while his wife works to support his golf addiction. Martin started golfing at 16 but didn’t start taking it seriously until 2022.
Sometime back when Martin was stripping for dollar bills, Justin Isaacks and Phill Kerr both became buddies…. not at the establishment where Martin was stripping for dollar bills. Sometime after that, Phill Kerr’s wife and Chris Anzalone’s wife also became buddies. Then Phil and Chris became buddies. Martin and Chris were also buddies, so Chris introduced Martin to Phill on the golf course and now they’re all buddies. So when I look at it that way, I guess the day I convinced our human resources manager to send me the resumes she had said were “crap,” that led to me hiring Justin Isaacks, was sort of the moment Martin’s trajectory began to align with the Montemar.
Martin seems like he’ll fit into this tournament just fine. He’s a mediocre golfer who spends way too much time doing it but keeps going because of how much fun it is. He seems like a great guy and another fantastic addition to this tournament.
ADDITIONAL CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE MONTEMAR - Martin is donating a box of balls. Thanks, Martin!
WHAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN IN 2024 - Martin will need to catch some luck in his random pairings and he’ll need to draft well. Par 3s carry some weight in the final scoring so landing balls on those greens will be key as well. Most importantly, Martin needs to have a blast.
ODDS TO WIN – 102-1
FUN FACT – Martin’s first set up clubs was a $100 set from Big 5 that were way too small for his 6-5 frame.
