Compton: "I'm just a regular guy, and I look like a regular guy."

Erik Compton got his first PGA Tour start as a card-holding member out of the way at the Sony Open and his story never gets old. Doug Ferguson catches up with the two-time heart transplant recipient about life as a full-time PGA Tour member and he's looking forward to the day he just gets asked about his favorite episode of Lost and whatever else Kelly T. comes up with!

But he is finding some normalcy in the clubhouse, on the putting green, at lunch, on the golf course.

"When I go in the locker room, they just look at me like I'm a regular player," he said. "None of the players ever ask me, and I kind of respect that, because they understand that I'm getting that on the other end. But I kind of blend in. I'm not like a superstar that people think. I'm just a regular guy, and I look like a regular guy."

Compton can't think of an interview when someone didn't mention his heart, "unless it was a reporter that didn't have the background or didn't have a clue." That's OK. He expects to get that as long as he's playing golf, and he doesn't mind talking about it.
