[Yoda]

This week's Zurich Classic of New Orleans is being played at TPC Louisiana in Avondale, Louisiana. There's a lot at stake here: A purse of $6,200,000 with $1,116,000 to the winner (and a ticket to The Masters if he is not otherwise qualified). In the field are LBG students Brian Gay, John Riegger and Jay Williamson. Catch today's first round action on The Golf Channel at 3:00 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. ET.

With three to play and the 'late' field just now teeing off, Jay Williamson has the solo lead at -4. http://www.pgatour.com/leaderboards/...018/index.html

Jay started on the backside, so he is now facing the Par 5, 7th. Get that birdie, Jay!

Way to go Jay. Steve Elkington has joined Jay at the top of the leaderboard. Steve is also an A.I. of TGM. The consistent good play of these TGM'ers is going to bring The Machine to the forefront of golf intruction.
