Werenski, the son of PGA professional, started to dream of playing on the PGA Tour as a high schooler at South Hadley High School and then after transferring during his sophomore year to the International Junior Golf Academy in Hilton Head, South Carolina he made it his goal. Following a successful junior career Werenski signed with Georgia Tech and just as he was about to begin his third year with the Yellow Jackets his breakout moment arrived.

Playing in the prestigious Porter Cup Werenski was lights out shooting four subpar rounds to finish 17-under-par and as the winner by two. His week was highlighted by a second round 8-under-par 62.

"After I won the Porter Cup I thought, man I am beating really good players who are definitely going to go to the PGA Tour one day and I am in that same category," Werenski said. The impact of the win however wasn't immediate for Werenski as he struggled during his junior year at Georgia Tech and was even suspended for a time due to anger management problems. However, following the suspension Werenski returned refocused and as a senior be twice finished inside the top-5.

Immediately after graduating Werenski entered the professional ranks and he made an instant splash winning three of his first five events while losing another in a playoff. The hot start helped Werenski earn a spot on the Golf Channel's widely popular Big Break where he produced his professional breakthrough moment by winning the competition and earning an exemption into the 2015 PGA Tour's Barbasol Championship, an event that he made the cut in.

"My confidence is through the roof right now," Werenski told Golf Channel after winning Big Break: The Palm Beaches. "I thought I was good enough to win this and I knew that if I played my game that I would have a really good chance and now I just feel that much better about my game."

That confidence hasn't left Werenski and as the soon to be 25-year-old stated he believes he is on the track to bigger and better things, "The biggest thing is to just keep doing what I was doing on the Web.com Tour, its not that much different on the PGA Tour. Whatever I was doing to get me out here is good enough to win out here. I think that is the big thing, believing in that and trusting in that."

Werenski is hoping to restart his season in Hawaii but he is waiting to see if he automatically qualifies or if he will have to play in a Monday qualifier. After Hawaii he plans on playing in the first three events of the California swing.

"My number one goal is to keep my card and finish top 125," Werenski said of his 2017 objectives. "But another goal is to win. I know I am good enough, I think it is just a matter of time until it happens."
