Lynn,

It looks as though the LBG leaderboard is adding members as the months go by here. IMO getting noticed on "the big stage" is the best route to increasing the prominence of TGM as taught by LBG. As demands on your time increase, it will be interesting to see how this all plays out.

You are going to be one busy 900 year old.........

UPP in chilly and maybe about to snow again Ohio

Meanwhile, in Puerto Rico, Greg Kraft went low with a 6-under par 66 and is now T4 at -9 and only 3 shots back. Greg's round was one of three 66s, the low score of the day. From the PGATOUR.com:

Veteran Greg Kraft moved into contention with a 6-under 66 and stands at 9-under 135 through 36 holes. Kraft is making his 379th career start on the PGA TOUR. He won the 1993 Deposit Guaranty Classic when it was an unofficial event by making a birdie at the 72nd hole to beat Morris Hatalsky and Tad Rhyan by one stroke. He also captured the 2005 Northeast Pennsylvania Classic on the Nationwide Tour.

After 36, here's the LBG Leaderboard:

Greg Kraft -- 69-66 / -9 / T4
Brian Gay -- 69-70 / -5 / T14
John Riegger -- 71-70 / -3 / T34
Jay Williamson -- 71-71 / -2 / T48
Neal Lancaster -- 73-70 / -1 / T60
Robin Freeman -- 75-74 / +5 / MC

With 81 players (80 professionals) making the cut, the field will be subjected to a 54-hole cut on Saturday, with the nearest number of players to 70 making it to the final day.

Greg Kraft is sitting at T2, one stroke behind the leader Bo Van Pelt. He shot a cool -3 today.

Bring it on home Greg!

Saw Kraft talk to the GC and said at the end that its good to know that he is finally in his career, working on all the right things. Way to go Yoda.

Just logging on after spending the day at The Golf Club at Cuscowilla in Eatonton, Georgia, with LBG Gallery star Collin Neeman. Collin has just turned 21 and is headed for The Gateway minitour wars in West Palm Beach, Florida, next week.

After 54, here's the good news from the Puerto Rico Open:

Greg Kraft -- 69-66-69 / -12 / T2
Jay Williamson -- 71-71-69 / -5 / T23
Neal Lancaster -- 73-70-69 / -4 / T31
John Riegger -- 71-70-72 / -3 / T41
Brian Gay -- 69-70-75 / -2 / T50

From the PGATour.com:

Kraft put together his third straight sub-70 round to start a tournament, something he hadn't accomplished since the Tucson Open in 2002. That's also the tournament where Kraft says he contracted Valley fever, which attacked his lungs and set his career back for several seasons.

"I'm tickled pink where I'm at," Kraft said. "You never know what'll happen."

Coming down to the wire and looking good for Greg.

Nice to see him at the top of the leaderboard.
