ACL Pro Matthew Morton's Cornhole Biography
I'm 17 years old and started playing cornhole in Driver, VA with my dad when I was 11. We played $2 blind draws for fun with all the money going to charity. I loved playing and it gave me and my dad a chance to spend a lot of time together so we started going to different places for blind draws. After I started doing well, we started playing in the organized leagues and traveling for some bigger tournaments. I eventually decided to become an ACL Pro last season so I could play regularly against the best competition in the world.
I had a great year in my first season as an ACL Pro, with some really great finishes and getting to appear on ESPNs first ever live broadcast of an ESPN event in the Pro Doubles World Championships. I’m looking forward to another great season in 2020!
