This is a story I had hoped to break. Unfortunately, storms rolled through the Quad Cities area late yesterday afternoon and knocked out my hotel's Internet access until today. Hence this delayed post.
I was on the practice tee with Brian Gay at the PGA TOUR's John Deere Classic in Moline, Illinois, when Jeff's call came in. The
Blessed Event had just occurred -- a 66 in the final round and an ace at the last to win the Georgia PGA's Griffin Classic -- and he was some kind of fired up! I let out a war whoop when Jeff told me the news and then put him on speaker phone so Brian and his caddie, Kip Henley, could hear the play-by-play. They had met Jeff when we were in Orlando for our LBG Academy at Foxfire and were just as excited as I was to hear all about it.
Congratulations, Jeff. This is really great stuff. Nobody has worked harder to learn the truths of
The Golfing Machine and to build his game around them. Hats off to a great Champion!
