SAN DIEGO, CA — April 2026 — Future Champions Golf (FCG) is excited to announce a new video series in partnership with one of YouTube golf’s most recognized creators, Mr. Short Game, who will be competing in Future Champions Golf Tour events across multiple age divisions as part of a new content initiative designed to showcase junior golf and continue growing the game.
The series will begin Saturday, April 4, 2026 at the FCG Kids Tour event at Welk Resorts, where Mr. Short Game will compete in the 7–8 division. The series will continue throughout the year as he attempts to compete — and win — across multiple age divisions on the Future Champions Golf Tour.
A Full Circle Moment with Future Champions Golf
What makes this series especially meaningful is Mr. Short Game’s long history with Future Champions Golf. Years ago, he spent many weekends caddying for his own children at Future Champions Golf tournaments, creating family memories and watching junior golfers grow through competition.
Matt Fisher, known online as Mr. Short Game, grew up in San Diego and played collegiate golf at San Diego State University, and has long been a supporter of junior golf and competitive tournament opportunities for young players.
In a message to Future Champions Golf families, Fisher shared:
“Having spent many hours caddying for my kids on the golf course, I am grateful for the great memories that the Future Champions Golf Tour provided for our family. Having grown up in San Diego myself and playing for San Diego State University, I love supporting junior tournament tours that prepare our kids for competitive golf and provide a place for enjoying this great sport.
I’m filming a series where I compete in the Future Champions Golf Tour, and I’m hoping together we can make a great video series and help support the Future Champions Tour along the way.”
This series represents a full circle moment, returning to the same tour where his own kids competed — this time to help showcase junior golf to a global audience.
