John,

I see you keep referring to this blazing start that the guy got off to, I see bogey, par on a par 5, triple, par on the same hole he parred all week and then a par. He started and finished like a complete chop!!! The Senior guy that you speak of, well, there could be health issues and weather and all sorts of stuff brought in at that level. Nobody that thinks they can play professional golf should be shooting over 100 twice in a tournament. I will buy 101-80-82-87, but not the scores this clown was shooting.

Nice find, but totally different, that guy was playing bad a few days. Can happen. His 'low' was 26 shots lower than your boys, 77-103. I would buy your nerves or outside agencies plea if the scores had gotten better, but your boy got worse each and every day. He was CLEARLY a hack, and had no business being there, but if you say on that piece of paper that you are a pro, then you are a pro and there is nothing that anyone can do about it.

He owns that par 3.  Parred it four times!

Glenn,

I seem to think his start was pretty dang good.

Look at the rest of his round and then say it was not blazing.
Exactly.

How do you feel for Jerry Chen? He was paired with this guy for the first two rounds.

While I certainly sympathize with Jerry Chen for having to play with that guy, the funny thing is that Jerry's best score, a 72 was shot in the first round ... the rest of his scores were 77-77-75. He actually shot better in the two rounds playing with "Mr. 110" than he did in the other two rounds... go figure ::)

John,

Thanks...but what do you expect of an organizantion that can't get its biggest stars to even show up...maybe they are afraid that if they start pulling guys off the course after a few bad swings everyone will go to China..

They may need to put a little league number into play...like once you are thirty shots out of the lead your game is over.  Check out all the qualifying scores...this is very common.

I have seen abysmal play at tour school. It always amazes me because I know the guy must have some game or he would never try. Once I had to tell a guy that his original ball and both provisionals were OB. He started crying, and decided to withdraw. His dad was there with him. I had to drive them back to the clubhouse, it was a bad, bad scene.

I think they should cut a deal with The Golf Channell for a slot for a Big Break contestant for Tour Championship no-shows. It would be great for the ratings.

I've got to think that at least a few of these guys (not speculating on the paticular guy that this thread is about) have some real game but don't normally play by the rules.  Have you ever played with the guy that has mad driving and putting skills and makes lots of birdies, but ignores rules like stroke and distance for a lost ball and maybe rolls the ball around in the rough?  I've seen more than a few shoot near par that probably would have been in the 80s playing by the rules.  Stick them at the tips and add Q-school pressure and 90s doesn't seem like a stretch.
