Career

Humenik is a graduate of Aquinas High School in Southgate, Michigan and was a member of the University of Michigan golf team.

In 1989, Humenik joined the PGA Tour gaining his tour card at 1988 PGA Tour Qualifying School. After struggling during his rookie year on tour he joined the Ben Hogan Tour in 1990. He won two events, the Ben Hogan Macon Open and the Ben Hogan Santa Rosa Open en route to a 5th-place finish on the money list which earned him his PGA Tour card for 1991.

In 1991, he finished 121st on the PGA Tour money list just good enough to retain his Tour card, he recorded two top-10 finishes. He bettered his performance in 1992, finishing 100th on the money list, including finishing in a tie for fourth at the Buick Southern Open. He finished 105th on the money list in 1993 and recorded three top-10 finishes. In 1994, he finished 108th on the money list, with the highlight of his year coming at the Greater Greensboro Open where he finished in a tie for second. He did not do as well in 1995 and failed to retain his Tour card. He did not play full-time on Tour again until 1999 when he played on the Nationwide Tour, his final season on Tour. He played in the U.S. Senior Open in 2009 and missed the cut.
