patience on the links

[john riegger]

How many of you out there lose your patience.you can feel that it is really close to what you are trying to achieve. Well i am right with you I am really close to knocking them dead. Yes even us tour players are like everyone else,the only difference is we beleive in what we are doing. Results are superficial sometimes not reflecting on what we do or how we play.
I can tell you from my stanpoint to just hang in there and beleive in what you are doing. We all go through the guided struggle evey now and then.

What do you feel is holding you back? Any clue John?

Looks like success is all around you, John. In another thread you mentioned Craig Barlow (your neighbor) and Brian Gay (worked with Yoda last week). As I check the results I see Mr. Barlow finishes 3rd($346K) and Mr. Gay finishes in the middle of the pack($43K). Patience and focus and TGM-----something tells me you are next.

Not so fast there, dcg1952!

Brian Gay entered the weekend T-11 in a starting field of 144 and finished T-23. Not exactly middle of the pack!

Also, Brian's 4-under par 67 on Friday included a fantastic double eagle 2 on the Hole #1 (his 10th of the day). Only Trevor Immelman's ace on the 16th kept it from being Shot of the Day on the PGA TOUR's website. And John Riegger told me last night that if Brian's shot had been recorded on TV, it would have been the Shot of the Day anyway. Thanks for noticing the wonderful play of these friends of LBG!
