Here we go again!

I was just talking to Lynn. So, Brian's last two rounds on Tour are 64 (low final round at Colonial) and 64 (low first round at St. Jude).

Three more scores like that, and he's a guarantee to get into the U.S. Open.

Two-time calendar year PGA TOUR event winners gain the final exemptions to next week's U.S. Open. Brian, winner at the Verizon Heritage, is off to a great start here with his 64 (-6) and a one-shot lead. For the round, he was T-4 in GIR; T-5 in Putts per GIR; and had a 100 percent Scrambling Percentage. If you hit more greens than most; hole more putts than most when you hit those greens; and get it up and down 100 percent of the time when you do miss the greens . . . you usually wind up pretty high on the leaderboard!



I'm booked at Cuscowilla through Saturday, but will be with Brian in Memphis if he's in the hunt Sunday. And if the Memphis Miracle occurs, I'll be at Bethpage next week.

Keep your fingers crossed everybody!

BRIAN GAY: I had a rib out and my back was spasming. My neck kind of locked up right before -- the last night at the Byron before I went over to Fort Worth, and had that treated all week at Colonial and some last week at home.

Q. Again, it's much better now in terms of your health?

BRIAN GAY: The back is fine. My neck is still tight and sore. I don't know if there's something else going on in there or not. I don't think it's bothering me as far as swinging the club, but just kind of a pain in the neck (laughter).

Does this explain why after his win BG didn't seem to be on the same level?
