Kenny Perry is your winner.

Proof positive that nice guys can -- and do -- finish first!



Congratulations to our LBG field (4.3 percent of the cut): Jay Williamson (T2 / $369,600); Brian Gay (T12 / $79,800); and John Riegger (T18 / $52,920). Thanks guys: It was fun watching you compete 'down the stretch' at the pinnacle of the game!

Lynn, will Jay make the trip to the Open Championship?

I haven't yet talked to him, but my assumption is that he is sitting on Mark Cuban's jet as we speak! http://blogs.dallasobserver.com/unfa...ban_jet_to.php

Chartered by the John Deere tournament committee to enhance the quality of their field, the jet is ferrying 23 professionals and their families from the Moline-Quad Cities Airport to Manchester, England, and Royal Birkdale Golf Club.

Jay's biggest problem is going to be getting his passport in time for the flight. He had planned on being in Milwaukee next week and didn't bring it with him!

...while Kenny hangs back in the States...I guess the chance for winning a Major isn't a big deal to Kenny....why bother going across the Big Pond and matching your skills with the greatest players in the world in Thee Major....oh but let me know if you need me for the Ryder Cup..since its here in the States and the course is to my liking...I'll be available. Sorry...but I just don't get it

Well, last year, it was wondering whether it would be Peek 'n' Peak next week. This is definitely a step up!
