Tiger Has Earned My Respect

Tiger is a phenom. No one else compares to what he has been able to accomplish at his age. Tiger has made everyone better that is playing on the tour against him. He's even made the younger players better, so they are ready for the PGA Tour. The thing that makes Tiger's run so unbelievable is the competition on the tour is so tough, but he donimates week in and week out. That's what I want. He has made our purses bigger...I have the best job in the world playing for almost a million a week. Tiger has earned my respect a great deal. I am just a rookie and I want to be just like him. Who wouldn't?

I am in Puerto Rico at the Puerto Rico Open and my Spanish sucks. I have been in a slump, and this week the slump ends! Top 10 for me this week.

GolfLink Question of the Week! Andrew Luey from San Carlos, Calif., asks:

You're doing great on your first year on the tour. Have you talked with Bri Vega lately? You guys had such 'chemistry' on the Big Break. It made great TV. Hope you guys get together.

Bri and I have great chemistry...she is such a great player and wonderful person. We are good friends.

Thanks y'all!

Good luck in PR, Tommy. One of the things I watch for when I follow your progress in a tournament isn't necessarily where you place, but who you outplay, and I must say that you've done very well against many well known, and highly rated players. When you're looking back down the leader board at people like Ben Curtis, Lee Janzen, Bob Estes, Tom Lehman, and Tom Kite, you're doing something right.

I can't wait for another update Tommy! You may not have gotten the top-ten finish that you wanted, but you played really well. What is your next tournament?
