Won the 2023 Senior PGA Championship in a playoff over Padraig Harrington at PGA Frisco.

He was the Captain for the 2021 U.S. Ryder Cup Team that won at Whistling Straits.

Inducted into the Wisconsin State Golf Association Hall of Fame in December 2007.

Wife, Nicki, who had been his caddie throughout his professional career, gave up the bag in 1998 to deliver daughter Bobbi Maria. She still caddies periodically.

Became the 15th recipient of the Payne Stewart Award when he won the honor in 2012. The Payne Stewart Award is presented annually to a player sharing Stewart's respect for the traditions of the game, his commitment to uphold the game's heritage of charitable support and his professional and meticulous presentation of himself and the sport through his dress and conduct.

Father-in-law Dennis Tiziani, a former golf coach at University of Wisconsin who played intermittently on the PGA TOUR in the 1970s, is his instructor.

In 2013 started a charitable foundation with American Family Insurance focusing on nutrition and wellness to help promote strong families and healthy kids.

Brother-in-law Mario Tiziani played on TOUR in 2005 and currently serves as his manager.

Captained the 2017 Presidents Cup U.S. Team to victory at Liberty National Golf Course in Jersey City, New Jersey, in his first stint as head captain in an international team event.

Brought the PGA TOUR back to the state of Wisconsin for the first time since 2009 when the American Family Insurance Championship debuted on PGA TOUR Champions in 2016. Serves as tournament host for the event held in Madison and became eligible to compete when he turned 50 in 2017.
