His father introduced him to the game of golf and he competed in his first tournament at age 10.

Gossett attended the University of Texas, and was a two-time first-team All-American member of the golf team.

Gossett won his first official PGA Tour event in 2001 at the John Deere Classic but his play didn't stay at champion level.

Gossett also played in the John Deere Classic and the Barracuda Championship, but missed the cut in both.

Once considered a golf prodigy with comparisons to Peter Hanson, Gossett's PGA Tour status is extremely limited due to lack of play and results.
