Congratulations,
Brian Gay, on another outstanding PGA TOUR tournament finish. At the
EDS Byron Nelson Championship in Irving, Texas, Brian shot 69-68-69-69 = 275 and finished T-19th.
Along the way, he compiled an impressive set of statistics. In
Driving Distance, at 276.1 yards on average off the Tee, he ranked 78th, about the middle of the field. But in
Driving Accuracy, it was a different story: Brian hit 69.6 percent of the Fairways and ranked T-1. That's "1" as in "one", "first," "numero uno", whatever.
He was T-23 in
Greens in Regulation (66.7 percent) and T-3 in Eagles.
He also was T-1 in
Sand Saves. He was T-10 in
Putts per Green and T-9 in
Putts per GIR. All of which shouldn't surprise us: For the year 2006 on the PGA TOUR, Brian currently ranks #1 in
Putting Average and #2 in
Scrambling.
Best of all, he shook hands with
Byron Nelson and then took home a tidy $83,700.
Good luck at
The Colonial, Brian. We'll be watching and rooting!
