Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial / PGA TOUR / May 22-25, 2008
Congratulations to Brian Gay on his spectacular 5-under-par 65 in today's second round. Brian's two day total of 134 (-6) puts him T2 for the tournament, just one shot behind leader Phil Mickelson.

Colonial Country Club (Fort Worth, Texas) is a storied venue -- dubbed 'Hogan's Alley' in respect to its 5-time winner -- and has long been known as a 'shotmaker's course'. With a $6.1 million purse and 25,000 FedExCup points at stake, this year's event promises to reward today's shotmakers very well. Especially the winner, who will take home $1,098,000 and 4,500 FedExCup points.

Could be right up 'Gay's Alley'!

Just saw Brian's position over on ESPN.com and thought Hey That's Yoda's Guy!
Phil is my wife's favorite player but I'll be rooting for BG this weekend!
Go Brian!
Have a great weekend everyone.

Tempus Fugit For Sure
Has it really been five years since Annika teed it up in the Colonial? http://www.pgatour.com/2008/tourname...ika/index.html



Sheesh!

Cookin' At Colonial
Brian was only two strokes back going into 17, but a tee ball into the hazard and the resulting double bogey dashed his hopes for the lead. He finished with 69 (-7 for the tournament) and T5, five strokes behind leader Phil Mickelson.

Making up five strokes in one round on the #2 player in the world is asking a lot, but there are only four men between Brian and the lead. This is a golf course where anything can happen . . .

And Brian can go low.

It was great to see Brian so close to the top...it was heartbreaking to see the double on 17....but BG is a professional and that hole is history...maybe something learned ....Yoda any idea what Brian hit off the tee on 17... it looked way off to the right and a very hard second shot to the green from where he was. I believe I heard 17 was playing the 2nd hardest on the course. He had a good save on 18 so tommorrow could be very interesting.
