Ole Miss found a certified champion in Braden Thornberry.
Thornberry capped off a sensational season with his championship win at Rich Harvest Farms in Sugar Grove, Illinois, but the path to success began for Thornberry long before his arrival at Ole Miss.
Son of Les and Veronica Thornberry, William Braden Thornberry was born on April 11, 1997 in Olive Branch, Miss. Braden had the benefit of his father being a scratch golfer who taught Braden the unique 10-finger grip that has become a defining piece of his game.
Thornberry worked with the resources he had available to him growing up and polished himself into one of the best young talents in the nation.
