Hensby says he won't go to Open?!

Wow. I'm watching the John Deere Classic right now, and the story line that they're following, other than who will win, is that the top finisher who's not already qualified for it will go to the British Open next week. Apparently, a bunch of guys playing didn't even know this was the case... and when they've asked some of them about it, they said they wouldn't go if it was them. Huh?! The current leader, Hensby, is one of them, and I find myself rooting against him, so that the guy behind him, an Englishman by the name of Morgan, can win. He would go - probably a life dream for the guy.

Not much point other than I find this amazing - how could you not go, given the chance. Sure, it would be a pain, expensive, and you might suck and not make the cut, but... still, don't you think you'd want to take the chance and go? Just in case you have the four days of your life, and win?! Or even just play well on a fluke, and make the cut?

Edit: A typo - and comment: Maybe it's just the novice in me showing...
