Not only was he tour winner, he also played in the final pairing of the Masters that following year. I think he caught Ian Baker Finch type yips with his driver and just can't keep the ball in play.Sea Speed said:
Didn't he win on tour as well and was part of that whole group of young good players? How do you fall off that hard?

Hell guys Roy McAvoy shot a 83-62-64-78 at the US open
Im looking for Ray Finkle.... and a clean pair of shorts. Im just a very big Finkle fan. This is my Graceland, sir.
"How'd you shoot an 83 Cup?"
"Missed a 5 footer back up the hill on 18 for an 82"

Results from last year.

So nothing for nothing but JFF certainly plays meaty courses. Ratings over 72 and slopes at 140+ are plenty difficult.
What do you think he shoots? 75? 80?

Realistically between 76 and 86.
2 Day...over 155.
One of the guys who tied for 5th last year played out at Golfcrest and on the Canadian Tour. Can absolutely mash the ball.
Yes a 1 hdcp can shoot 87. No 1 hdcp self-proclaimed aspiring professional golfer would ever enter it in GHIN.
In the Open? 85

Can I bet on someone finishing DFL?
How much money could you make on smylie in a pga tourney? He'd probably be -110 but still good odds.
Not to derail but smylie fired an 87 at the Barbasol and is DFL by a mile after round 1.
34 off the lead after 2
FJB
LOL. Shooting in the 70s both days...last on the MC list. #Perspective
Romo shoots even par for round 1 on the Korn Ferry today...which was better than about 20 other pros.
Doesn't tell the whole story though. He's E but T-114. Going to miss the cut which will probably be -5 or -6.
Context helps
To be fair he said it's better than 20 pros which pretty clearly implies +/- 110 pros are ahead of him to anyone who knows how pro golf tournaments work

I was thinking more bigger picture. Not so much on this board but there are people on Texags who think Romo, Manziel, et al could compete professionally which of course they can't.

for those interested...Last Chance Qualifying scores below. The guys that didn't qualify the first time...so look at the guys who DIDNT qualify the second time: -3 got you into a playoff. So last guys in are shooting -3 and lower.

How did they determine which of the t-7's got to play and which were alts?
Did Romo and JFF not play?

playoff. It would be a 7-for-3 to get in, and then they likely had a playoff for the remaining 3 alternate spots, another 7-for-3 of the -2 guys
EDIT - sounds like it was a bit different...there were two courses involved in qualifying, so each course had separate qualifiers...
Playoffs were conducted at each site to order alternate positions #1#14. Alternates #1, #3, #5, #7, #9, #11 and #13 were determined at the Bridges Course, and alternates #2, #4, #6, #8, #10, #12 and #14 were determined at the Lakes Course. The official order of alternates for the Championship is listed below.
Official Alternate List:
1. Adam House Rockwall, TX
2. Austin Wylie Boerne, TX
3. Spencer LaBarbera (a) Mesquite, TX
4. Matthew Cole Fayetteville, AR
5. Chris Malec Bentbrook, TX
6. Eddie Griswold Garland, TX
7. Hagen Hutchinson Wichita Falls, TX
8. Clint Avara McKinney, TX
9. Jake Ezell Dripping Springs, TX
10. Kade Stewart Tomball, TX
11. James Nitties Dallas, TX
12. Roger Oliver Burleson, TX
13. Francis Biondi Austin, TX
14. Jason Shirey Canton, TX

Qualifying consists of a bunch of qualifying locations, then they have a "last chance" qualifier for those that don't make it the first time, and anyone else who registers.
Guessing - based on prev posts - Romo and JFF got in on exemptions and don't have to qualify. I would also venture to guess JFF wouldn't have qualified.

Not the right board but I was just thinking is Kevin Costner the most Americana actor of our generation?
He's played so many iconic and original roles.
Lt. John J. Dunbar
Roy McAvoy
Ray Kinsella
The list goes on

Finished dead ****ing last.
I'm still laughing at the thought of Gabe trying to convince e people jff would make it on the pga
He said first page of the leaderboard on Sunday at the US Open not just PGA Tour. Just needs some practice.

I thought that was hyperbole when you mentioned it last time. Thats even better. Wow.

Live scoring is way behind. Guys that teed off just after 7:30 don't show any scores.
Ive never followed this event before but if it's from the bluegolf website events like this only update after rounds are completed before the cut. After the cut they either update every hole or at 9. It may depend how many volunteers they have as well.
