It’s that special time again …. we’re back with FLX Tour’s Meet the Pros!
We got an absolute BALL STRIKER for you today with none other than Tom Deiure. A local golfing legend from his days representing the Lancers in the high school ranks, the youngest Deiure brother is a threat to win every time he steps to the tee box. Currently Ranked No. 7 in the Young Man of the Year rankings, he’s still seeking his first FLX Tour major victory, but the question isn’t if he will ever win one, but how many notches on his belt when he calls it a career. Let’s get to know Tom!

What’s your dream achievement as an FLX Tour pro?
— My dream as an FLX Tour Pro is to hole out on the 18th from 150 yards out while even through 17 going head to head against Shane, crushing his dreams of ever defeating me again in the game of golf.

Stunning and brave.
It’s been said that Dan Driffill Sr. prefers Tom Deiure to any of his sons, especially when it comes to golf, and now we can understand why. This guy is a straight shooter and he’s not afraid to put lofty ambitions in those sights. We of course appreciate his willingness to work with and for that sweet, sweet Saudi dough.
Deuire will look to grab his first FLX victory at the upcoming Genesee Invitational, and he won’t take any prisoners on his path of destruction.
