If Jensen Huang played golf: rated 80, best at course IQ

Jensen Huang as a golfer: scouting report

Jensen Huang would be the golfer who has every green on the course modeled before the first round, with the slopes and speeds already worked out. Course IQ is the top mark on his card. He co founded Nvidia in 1993, sketching out the plans at a Denny's restaurant, and turned it into the company whose graphics chips power gaming, scientific computing and much of modern artificial intelligence. A mind that can see where an industry is heading years in advance can certainly see how a golf course wants to be played.

His nerve is right behind his course IQ. Building a chip company means making huge decisions years before you know if they will pay off, and his steady hand through many of those moments is exactly what a golfer needs over a tense putt. He also played competitive table tennis as a teenager, a sport that sharpens reflexes, touch and spin control, and that background shows up in his short game, the best of his shotmaking skills. His putting is close behind, and his irons are steady.

Driving is the soft spot. He would rather put the ball exactly where his plan says than overpower a hole, which makes The Long Course Championship, with its premium on distance, his toughest fit. The Links Open suits him best, because strategy, imagination and composure in the wind can beat raw power there. He worked at Denny's as a teenager before studying engineering at Oregon State and Stanford, and he has led Nvidia as its chief executive ever since he helped found it. Draft him as a smart middle round scorer and pair him with a long hitter.
