Q School

I failed to advance to the Final Stage of the Champion’s Tour Qualifying Tournament by two shots, yesterday. Fourteen players, from this site advanced to the Finals in Coral Springs, FL. They will play week after next for 5 full time spots, 5 conditional and 30 spots in the Monday qualifiers for the 2009 Champion's Tour season.

I had EVERY opportunity to advance, but absolutely could not stay out of my own way. I just made too many mistakes with EVERY part of my game. And I won’t bore you, nor sicken myself with the details. At times I played real well and at times, more poorly than I can even imagine. I’m more disgusted wth my inconsistency, than disappointed with the result.

I'd like to put a positive spin on this but it leaves me with no good competitive golf options for next year. I would have to play in a pre qualifier to get into the Monday qualifiers and I’m just not going to do that.

I really appreciate everyone’s interest and enthusiasm in my golf career and will talk to you down the line.

Thanks again for all the encouragement.

Scott.
