Day 4 - Second Stage Web.com

Friday was the last round for Second Stage Web.com qualifying.  It was windy and rainy all day.  Tim shot an 82 for the last day, missing the cut.  It's a bummer that he didn't make it through to final stage, but I am very proud of him getting this far and of his determination that he plays with everyday.  We'll be looking at his schedule for next year and will keep you updated!

Trilogy Golf Club at Power Ranch

Tim played at Triology Golf Club at Power Ranch on Sunday and Monday this week.  The weather was not too hot yet for Arizona so his mom, dad and I were able to walk along with him as he played on the first day.  He shot 71 the first day and 72 the second day.

The next few weeks Tim will be practicing at Alta Mesa golf club and working with his golf instructor Tim Mahoney.  He will be preparing himself for his next event, the US Open Local Qualifier on May 14th (which just also happens to be his birthday) :)

PGA Tour Canada Qualifying School

Tim was on the waiting list for the PGA Tour Canada qualifying school but received a call two days before the Oak Valley, CA event.  So he took the opportunity and went to CA for the week.  It was four rounds, top 40 players get status on PGA Tour Canada.  He showed significant improvement from last year and missed getting status by one shot.  He's thinking positive and will be working on his game until the next tournament.

I just think I need to travel with him to the next tournament so he doesn't have to miss me so much!
