Lets set those guys straight!:
AHHHH YES...Bobby corrected the mistake as you made the approach on the 18th!
Mentioned Lynn Blake would recommend a 3-barrel power accumulator stroke for that shot.
Another wonderful four days of golf: 68-66-70-70=284, solo 4th and $288,000.
Congratulations, Brian Gay!
Oh, and about that Bobby Clampett mention:
Bobby had earlier misidentified Brian's coach as Alex Sloan. Hey, it was an honest mistake...Alex and I are both 'old guys' who were trained by Homer Kelley way back in the early days of TGM! But friend John Riegger, winner of last week's LaSalle Bank Open on the Nationwide Tour, was watching from his home in Las Vegas and caught the error. He immediately text-messaged "Finchie" (Ian Baker-Finch) in the CBS tower and, next thing you know, Clampett takes a Mulligan and gets it right. Class acts, Bobby and Ian. Thanks!
And thank you, John Riegger. It's good to have friends with 'connections' in 'high' places!
