Howell III
PGA Tour Golfer
It’s About
Balance,
Family
and Staying
Healthy
by Ashley Grano
Garden of Life ® brand ambassador Charles Howell III is
an inspiration for healthy living, both for golf aficionados
as well as those who have never picked up a club. He loves
a challenge, clean eating and varying his fitness routine.
While many equally skilled pros become tainted by fame
and success, Charles is the epitome of a role model,
on and off the course. When we spoke to Charles recently,
we were impressed by this PGA Tour golfer’s dedication
not only to his sport, but to his family and having balance
in his life.

EXTRAORDINARY HEALTH: You started playing golf
at 7, competed in your first PGA Tour at age 17 and went
pro at 21. After a long and successful career, what are
your goals at this time?
CHARLES HOWELL III: This is my 17th year on the PGA Tour,
and it’s amazing how time flies. Having two kids in school
shifts priorities a bit. Golf for me has taken a bit of a different
role, in that I don’t think about it now all the time. With a wife
and kids, it’s balanced me out and made things better.
