Johnny Ray Huston (born June 1, 1961) is an American professional golfer who won seven PGA Tour events and currently plays on the PGA Tour Champions.
Early life
[edit]Huston was born in Mt. Vernon, Illinois. He attended Auburn University in Auburn, Alabama and was a member of the golf team.
Professional career
[edit]Huston turned professional in 1983.[2] He won seven PGA Tour events and has had more than 80 top-10 finishes in his career. He has a history of being a "streaky" player, who either plays extremely well or mediocre. At the 1998 United Airlines Hawaiian Open, he broke a 53-year-old record for 72-hole scoring by shooting 260, a 28-under-par performance. Huston attributed his record-breaking score to magnets that he placed in his shoes and in the cover of his mattress.[3] He also had a course-record 61 at the 1996 Memorial Tournament. He finished in the top-100 on the money list every year but one during the first 17 years of his career.
Huston was a member of the winning inaugural Presidents Cup team in 1994 and the losing 1998 team. He is the first American golfer selected to two President Cups without a Ryder Cup.
Huston's best finish in a major championship was T-3 at the 1990 Masters Tournament; he also had a solo 4th-place finish at the 2000 U.S. Open.[4] His peak Official World Golf Ranking was 15th in 1999.
Huston's first Champions Tour win was at the 2011 Dick's Sporting Goods Open, which was his third start and came just 25 days after he turned 50.[5]
Huston has a reputation for playing very quickly. Commentator Gary McCord has described Huston as the Tour's fastest golfer, with no one a close second. He lives in Palm Harbor, Florida.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
