Meet the Pros: Dan Riesenburger

We’re back once again with FLX Tour’s Meet the Pros!

We’re excited about this one because it’s none other than 2nd year Tour veteran Dan Reisenburger. Currently ranked No. 15 in the race for the Young Man of the Year, this young man is fresh off of a respectable finish at the 2023 Grand Open (tied for 10th in net score) and is the running for the Tour’s Most Improved Player award, aka the “From Trash to Cash” award.

Known for his occassional pipe bomb with a driver, and wildly unpredictable short game, fans and Pros alike must have their wits about them when he’s taking the tee.

Let’s get to know Dan!

Be Like Bone

Bombs away indeed! D-Ries will get his wish as him and Brendan Millward (Team Biwi) will indeed square off against Todd and Gene in the final pairing of Saturday’s Churchville Classic. To make matters more dramatic, the rest of the Tour will be awaiting in the gallery on 18 to chirp these mfs to an early grave.

Big thanks to Bone for taking the time to chat with us, good luck Saturday at the major golf championship young man. You love to see an Eastridge Color Guard reference.
