Jamie J. Nieto, PGA, is Head Golf Professional at Pheasant Run Golf Club in St. Charles, Illinois, the 2016 Illinois PGA Distinguished Service Award winner recognized for his work as a national advocate for burn survivors after recovering from third-degree burns covering 65% of his body on his 20th birthday. A 20-plus-year PGA member and 500-plus competitive events veteran who speaks at schools, hospitals, and before members of Congress on behalf of burn survivors, he coaches with a fundamentals-first philosophy built on the laws and principles that allow each individual player — regardless of age, strength, or flexibility — to produce their most consistent shots.
