Tom Kite Coaster

Description

Tom Kite is a Hall of Fame golfer who has had an impressive career. Here are five fun facts about his personal life:

1. Tom Kite was born on December 9, 1949 in McKinney, Collin County, Texas.
2. He attended the University of Texas at Austin and co-captained the golf team with Ben Crenshaw, winning the NCAA championship in 1972.
3. He was named PGA Rookie of the Year in 1973 and PGA Player of the Year in 1989.

5. He set records for career earnings on the tour and finished in the top 10 of a major tournament more than 170 times during his career.

Coasters are created with care and precision, featuring authentic cards that are hand-mounted onto high-quality ceramic tiles measuring just over 4×4 inches and .25 inches thick. The card that adorns your coaster is carefully chosen by Jake and Dean, although it may not always be the card pictured. The surface of the tile is then sealed with a bio-based resin for protection and finished off with a natural cork backing.
