Do you feel for this guy -- missing a 3 footer to get into a playoff with Bettencourt in Reno?

This guy personifies the allure of golf to me.....by all accounts he is a fringe player on the tour, bouncing between the Nationwide and PGA tour for a few years....he has just turned 40 years old and continutes to plug away (has had a horrible year on the Nationwide this year, missing 8 of 10 cuts)...

For most guys, this may not be a big deal but this guy has a friggen degree in Economics from YALE -- he could obviously be making much, much more money with that degree than he is on tour (with added job security, no travel, hotels, away from the family, etc.).

But, in the end, the guy just keeps plugging away at it.........

I feel for him. Hit a beauty on 18 and then choked on the put. That is definitely a situation I have been in. Sucks for him, propbably will be a long time before he is in that position again.

You have never been in that position. How do you know he choked? The camera angle foreshortens things so that a good putt can look pulled. He certainly doesn't think he choked.
