About Maverick

Maverick McNealy is a 26 year old professional golfer, playing his third season on the PGA Tour. Maverick was a former San Jose Junior Sharks hockey player through high school, where he attended the Harker School in San Jose, California. He is the oldest of 4 brothers and currently resides in Las Vegas, Nevada for the 20 weeks a year he is home!!

In 2013, Maverick decided that smashing drives was a better path than getting smashed into the boards on the ice rink, and earned a spot as an unranked junior golfer on the Stanford Men’s Golf team. Maybe Coach Ray had a soft spot for other hockey players, because Maverick only received one other Division 1 offer to play before Stanford! In four years, he earned a B.S. in Management Science and Engineering and eleven collegiate victories, tying a program record… Learn More

MAVERICK’S NEXT GOAL IS ANOTHER $1M!

A few of the amazing things Curriki has done this year are:

R

Built an interactive video player so students can engage with videos instead of passively watching them.

R

Helped build easier-to-use authoring tools for teachers with ready-made layouts and templates.

R

Launched several partners such as Katy ISD, Baylor University, and First Tee!

I just renewed my pledge to donate $100 for each birdie I make
this season. Birdies has raised $975k so far.

THE IMPACT OF YOUR GENEROUS CONTRIBUTIONS

I couldn’t be more excited to get going in the 2022-2023 Season!

My goal this season is 400 birdies! I made 441 last year.

Making a difference in education is something the Curriki team and I are very passionate about, and we wouldn’t be able to make this impact without all of your generous contributions of all sizes.

January 9-15, 2023, Honolulu, HI
The Sony Open in Hawaii, formerly The Hawaiian Open, is hosted by Waialae Country Club. Waialae is the historic site where Kamehameha the Great beached his “warships” and battled the people of Oahu to unify the islands under his rule. Founded 95 years ago in 1927, and designed by Seth Raynor, it is a 7,125-yard, Par-72 championship course. One of the signature and most scenic holes at Waialae is #17, a very difficult par-3 requiring a long or middle iron. The green features a large bunker on the left and a series of four deep, hidden bunkers guarding the right.

January 25-28, 2023, San Diego/La Jolla, CA

Due to a crowded sports weekend, play at Torrey Pines will be shifted to Wednesday through Saturday. Each golfer will play one of four rounds on the North Course.

North Course: Par-72 / 7,258 Yards

One of the signature holes on the North Course is #16. The uphill Par-4 has the ocean and cliff all along the left side. This hole used to be on the front 9 until they flipped the nine’s during the 2016 Tom Weiskopf renovation.

South Course: Par-72 / 7,765 Yards

One of the signature holes on the South Course is #3, one of the shortest and hardest of Par 3’s. It has an elevated tee shot towards a green that has a ravine to the left and the Pacific Ocean long.

January 30-February 5, 2023,

Pebble Beach, CA

The AT&T was originally known as the Bing Crosby National Pro-Amateur, or just the Cosby Clambake, and is played on 3 courses: Pebble Beach Golf Links (Par-72, 6,817yards), Spyglass Hill Golf Course (Par-72, 7,026 yards), and Monterey Peninsula Country Club Shore Course (Par-72, 6,972 yards).

The starting field consists of 156 professionals paired with 156 amateurs. On the 1st 3 days each 2-man team plays a better ball format with one round on each of the 3 courses. The pros also play an individual stroke play format. On the final day, those professionals and Pro-am teams making the 54-hole cut will play on the Pebble Beach Golf Links.
