lynn saying Also, he is foregoing U.S. Open qualifying this year. BG and Torrey Pines at 7,643 yards/Par 71 (35-36)
. . .
That is exactly what Brian told me on May 18th after the close of the AT&T Classic at TPC Sugarloaf. He was not exempt for the U.S. Open and had made the decision to forego the qualifiying attempt. In a free country and as an entrepreneurial PGA TOUR member, that decision was his privilege. And by the way, it had nothing to do with 'spending more time with the family'. It had everything to do with what he felt was best for his career.

No "guessing" about it, hjack. As all friends of LBG know, I have had the privilege of being Brian's swing coach for some time now. Specifically, since February 8, 2006. Further, that journey has been documented on this site every step of the way. Since that time, he has made 54 cuts on the PGA TOUR and more than $3,000,000 in Official Money. He is currently 10th in Scoring Average. And now you have the audacity to suggest that I am condemning him as a failure and that I am guilty of "not believing in your own guy"?
Please.

No mention of failure.
No hint of disbelief or lack of confidence.
Just the facts.
You have been making your own waves for some time now, hjack. And I, for one, am growing a bit weary of having to surf them.
