Southern Farm Bureau Classsic

This tourny does not get much talk but I was out there today and it is fun watching all the borderline pros try to stay in the top 125. Many players have their career riding on this tourney. May have to follow Duval tommorrow. Perfect weather and a great course. Followed three guys I have never heard of and it is amazing how good they are. Some guy named Gavin Coles was in the group and we walked about 8 holes with his father. He was a bundle of nerves. Might want to keep up with these boxscores and storylines this weekend.

Some of those guys were under a ENORMOUS amount of pressure. Golf is a mental and phsychological game as well as a physical one. Lossing your tour card has to be blow to a players confidence. There are going to be players that lose their exemption status and for one reason or another won't make it back on to the tour. Golf is truly a sport where you have no place to hide if you don't perform well you simply aren't going last on tour.

The same deal with all the sports where it's your performance and only yours that brings home the bacon or not. Team sports can definitely allow players to collect checks when they've not performed well...the PGA you get paid for what how well you played...not if someone else made a birdie for you or set you up for a shot...that's what I like about golf.

Greetings ...

The SFB Classic gaves those who saw it a taste of what Q-School is like!

The real "Fall Classic" is in early December, and it will be some kinda show!

Thanx-A-Lot, Frank-0-Sport
