Good Luck Brian!

My congrats also to Brian on his fine play at Greensboro. I will see him again next week in New York at Westchester and the Barclays Classic, first in the inaugural FedEx Cup Series. Brian has played well there in the past, and this year should be no exception.

Meanwhile, I am in New Jersey conducting two consecutive LBG Academies with PGA Master Professional Bill Castner at Hyatt Hills Golf Club. By great good fortune, I am staying the week in the main clubhouse at Baltusrol Golf Club -- -- and am logging on this late evening from its famed locker room replete with photographic chronicles of golfing history and more than a century gone by.

The ghosts are aplenty in these hallowed halls.

And I am alone with them.

It's a good time.

Where you should be, in your element among the meat-eaters past and present. But you have all of us pulling for you and your associates.

Glad you stopped in to visit your home away from home. Keep us in the loop!

Its moving day tomorrow. Keeping my fingers crossed that the LBG crew goes low.

Thanks, Bagger.

Actually, where I should be is at rest in #6 with Mrs. Yoda.



Thankfully...

She understands.

Keeping my fingers crossed that the LBG crew goes low.

And those 'crossed fingers' extend to Greg Kraft, a.k.a., 'Krafty,' whose great 67 today put him at -11 for the tournament and T4. He's had a tough road physically in the past few years, and he continues his comeback recovery.



Also, keep'em crossed for Jay Williamson and Neal Lancaster, both at -6 and T48.

shot a little 68 today to bump him up from 21st to a tie for 13th..... good job man. Only 4 bogeys in the four rounds

You cannot believe the respect I have for this guy and the work he does.

I asked Brian one time, "When did you know you might have something others don't."

Very matter-of-factly, he replied: "I entered eleven junior tournaments when I was starting out, and I won nine. I figured I must be good."

Later came his Medalist honors in the National Amateur.

And then the Walker Cup.

Not to mention collegiate All-American.

He was right.

He was -- and is -- good.
