Abraham Ancer

Ancer was born in South Texas, but grew up in Reynosa, Mexico. As a result, he has dual citizenship. He learned how to play golf at Club Campestre de Reynosa and his infatuation with the game came from his father, who sadly died in 2014 before his career truly took off.

1He returned to the United States because he felt it would benefit his golf career. He went to the University of Oklahoma and had the second best career scoring average in school history, behind Anthony Kim. He worked his way to the PGA Tour and became the first Mexican to play in the Presidents Cup in 2019.

2Away from the course, Ancer co-founded Flecha Azul, a company that produces ultra-premium tequila, earlier this year. Ancer formed the company with Aron Marquez and the manufacturing process actually takes place in Tequila, Jalisco, Mexico. You can now find the brand all over the world.
