Despite not playing the weekend...I witnessed an incredible round of golf by Brian Gay on Friday....we walked every hole of the course with Brian's group...saw every shot Brian took...and can tell everyone that Brian is a top notch professional golfer in every sense. He is a cool player with great determination. There is no quit that I could see even after a bad break on a par 3. Missing the cut is tough especially when it is by one shot. But lessons are learned... experience is gained especially from adversity.
The year is just beginning...BG has all the tools...it just a matter of time.
Thanks for your follow-up post, Hector. Sounds like you and Chris had a fun day!
Brian called this afternoon. He was sitting on the plane heading to this week's Mayakoba Golf Classic at Riviera Maya-Cancun and asked me to say "Hello." He was impressed that you were waiting for him when he showed up on the range at 6:50 a.m. -- -- and was glad he got to meet you. I also told him about your post this morning, and he appreciated your comments.
The Mayakoba is a new PGA TOUR tournament being played opposite the WGC -- Accenture Match Play Championship. It is being held at the Mayakoba resort in Playa del Carmen, Mexico, and will be televised all four days by The Golf Channel.
Out of curiosity . . . how big of a moron does a gallery member (patron) have to be in order to go running after a wayward tee shot to the point that they have to dance in order to not step on the ball?
I could teach a dog not to run after a golf ball, what is the excuse for these middle-age golf fanatics?
What can someone gain from running after a golf ball anyways?
