Thirty and thriving, Atlas LC and U.S. team defenseman Tucker Durkin parasails into our Q&A.
When you were younger, what did you want to be when you grew up?
I wanted to play in the NBA or on the PGA Tour. Pretty diehard Phil Mickelson fan here. So cool to see him win another major.
Where did you go on your last vacation?
All over Thailand with John Ranagan.
If you owned a boat, what would you name it?
How do you know I don’t own a boat or boats? I’d name it Albatross.
What is your favorite hobby (other than lacrosse)?
Golf. It took quarantine to reignite our relationship.
What’s the most adventurous thing you’ve ever done?
Parasailing in Thailand. This time I was with Mike Noone. Unsure if the boat passed safety inspections. It ended with me landing on the beach full of people.
What’s one thing you can’t live without?
Hot sauce.
