La'Cassie was born in Brisbane, Australia. During his adolescent years Bronson played for the Queensland State Team, which finished second in 2000, as well as playing for the Australian Honorary School Team. He graduated from Kelvin Grove State High School in 1999, earning both his higher and lower school certificates.[1]

In 2003 La'Cassie began his freshman year at the University of Minnesota, after being noticed for his considerable golf skills. He was named the fourth "Big Ten Freshman" of the school. During his 2005–2006 junior season he was awarded the Les Bolstad award for lowest scoring average in the Big Ten, being the fourth Gopher to ever win the award. In 2006 he won the Western Amateur, a leading annual amateur event, after defeating Oklahoma State's Pablo Martín, 2 and 1.[1]

La'Cassie currently holds an Australian higher and lower school certificate, as well as a major in business and marketing which he earned while at the University of Minnesota. He attributes his most memorable sports thrill to playing in the Australian Open.[1]

La'Cassie played on the Web.com Tour in 2013. He won the last regular-season event, the Cox Classic, to move to sixth on the regular-season money list and earn his 2014 PGA Tour card.[2]

gollark: Unlike GTech™, they have no products, and are working on a drone delivery system which doesn't... do anything... and wouldn't be useful if it did.
gollark: Their headquarters is a ridiculous maze the construction of which nearly bankrupted them (because they don't do concrete in-house, like wrong people), their broken laser "defenses" try and lase me while in my office, many of the doors are mysteriously missing, and another company stuck a giant blob on top of their roof.
gollark: I suppose PixelTech™ is generally not very competent.
gollark: Yes, I am definitely harmed by people claiming that "potatOS" is present in random binary files they're editing.
gollark: Slightly fixed version.
