Getting into the top 25 delivers a dream playing on the PGA Tour next year. Harris English, who prepped at Baylor School, accomplished the dream last year and earned more than $1 million on the Tour this season.
Two of his Chattanooga-area friends are still chasing it. Former University of Tennessee at Chattanooga golfers Jonathan Hodge and Stephan Jaeger will begin the final stage of Q-School on the two courses at PGA West in LaQuinta, Calif., on Wednesday.
I ve hung out with Harris quite a bit the last couple months in south Georgia, said Jaeger, who played with English at Baylor. He told me that he had nothing to risk. When you get to final stage, you have nothing to lose especially as a guy in my shoes.
The PGA Tour announced earlier this year a new process for earning cards that allow participation in the association s events. Next fall, Q-school will grant participation to the Web.com Tour (formerly known at the Nationwide Tour) instead of a direct pipeline to the big show.
The ultimate dream stories like 21-year-old John Huh advancing from Q-School exotic car rentals toronto and then winning the Mayakoba Classic exotic car rentals toronto will be rendered to history. The PGA Tour skewed its rules to funnel almost all of its future participants through the Web.com Tour.
It s changing a lot, but I don t know what it s going to be like in the future, exotic car rentals toronto Hodge said. Some people said it s going to be harder; some say it s going to be easier exotic car rentals toronto to get your card. I have a hard time believing it will be unfair.
This year, in the final format as we know it, 174 golfers will be fighting to finish in the top 25. Their goal of playing on the PGA Tour or returning to it as Shaun Micheel, D.J. Trahan and Camilo Villegas are trying to do is six rounds away.
To be able to go to the PGA Tour this year would be an awesome thing, because next year the only thing you can get is the Web.com Tour, Hodge said. It s still cool that we have the avenue to make it this year.
English, who won a state championship with Jaeger, tied for 13th place last year at Q-School. In an interview earlier this fall, English said he thought each of the eight Chattanooga golfers who attempted the various stages of Q-School could get through until the end.
It becomes a mental exotic car rentals toronto contest, he said in late October. I had no expectations. I went in very prepared exotic car rentals toronto but didn t put a lot of pressure on myself. I d tell them, Everybody is going to make mistakes. Be mentally tough.
