Foley acknowledges the resemblance of their coaching style(s) and reportedly says the similarity is due to all of them studying the swings of old players who kept centered over the ball during the entire swing. Foley has been the head coach for the Canadian Junior Golf Association since 2003 and teaches at Core Golf Junior Academy at Orange County National, Winter Garden, Florida. He graduated with an Arts degree from Tennessee State University, where he played on the varsity golf team. Foley did not aim for a professional golf playing career, but had set a goal in his mid-teens of becoming an instructor to top players, after watching David Leadbetter work with Nick Faldo on the range at the RBC Canadian Open at Glen Abbey Golf Course in the early ’90s. Foley moved to Orlando, Florida in August 2006. Foley and O’Hair split in May 2011, Foley citing O’Hair’s need for a fresh start and a desire to change the direction of his instruction. Foley is represented by agent Chris Armstrong of the Wasserman Media Group.
