Morgan Hoffmann is playing this week in the final tournament of his medical extensions the PGA Tour granted him as he has battled facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy.
Hoffmann, who never has won on the PGA Tour in 164 starts since turning pro in 2013, stepped away from golf for two-and-a-half years and made a new life in Costa Rica, where he and his wife, Chelsea, bought a home and are planning to open a health and wellness center.
“It’s definitely a sense of accomplishment — not for golf specifically, but for health reasons and all the hard work I’ve put into it,’’ Hoffmann told The Post after his round Saturday. While studying Dr. Joe Dispenza, a former triathlete who was paralyzed after being run over by a car and healed himself by meditating, Hoffmann gained confidence that he could heal himself with the power of his own mind.
“I left my house when I was 15 [to play golf] and kind of taught myself how to grow up. This was just another stage of that, figuring things out on my own.’’ Hoffmann said he “dry brushes” his body with a rough horse brush because “it opens your pores and you get out in the sun so you start sweating and you rub the urine into your body where your muscles are atrophied and those stem calls re-grow areas. Your skin is your biggest organ and it’s very absorbent.’’
