Ryder Cup golfer and former Hampton School student Paul Casey shares 60 seconds with the Surrey Comet.
If you hadn't been a golfer, what would you have been?
I think I would have done something in sport. If not playing then possibly coaching.
Who do you get on best with on Tour?
There is always a special bond with the European players – especially the English ones I grew up with, but also I get on great with many American Tour players for example Geoff Ogilvy.
So what do you get up to away from golf?
I love to cycle and snow board.
What are the top five tunes on your iPod?
The top 5 most played tunes on my iTunes are...
Club Foot - Kasabian. Blue Monday - New Order. She Sells Sanctuary - The Cult. Bittersweet Symphony - The Verve. Breathe - The Prodigy.
What are the best songs to work out to?
Anything that gets you going. I like it loud with a high tempo, David Guetta seems to be working recently.
What’s the last thing you Sky plussed?
I don't remember. I'll watch replays on the internet rather than record from the TV.
Three things you would take with you if you were stranded on a desert island?
My wife, my iPad and - if it was a big island - my bike.
What is the best holiday destination you’ve been to and why?
Italy – my wife and I love going there so anywhere in Italy with my wife.
You've been based in the United States for a long time, do you get home much?
I love coming home where I catch up with my family and friends – I have a house very near my parents so always love returning home and catching up with everyone.
If you joined a dating website, how would you describe yourself?
Married and unavailable.
Where do you see yourself in ten years time?
I think I will still be playing golf, but hopefully with a couple of Major trophies in the cabinet.
