Lois Lau finishes T23 in the European Ladies Amateur. That's a good result in a strong field, including scores of 66 and 67 over the 72-hole event.
I didn’t realize how tall Hoge is until I saw him standing next to Finau. I always assumed Hoge was kind of short.Hoge birdies the 14th in Minnesota to move into solo 4th, 3 shots back of the lead.
Barjon had moved into the top 20, but rinsed two coming in and will finish around T31.
Update: Hoge finishes T4; he bumps up 1 spot to 16th in the FedEx Cup standings. Barjon finishes T31; Henry T72 -- his third made cut in his past 5 events.
And here I thought John Belushi was short; guess that's because he was always standing next to Dan Aykroyd.I’m 6’2” and he’s shorter than me.
I’ve got him listed at 6’1” in my database if it mattersAnd here I thought John Belushi was short; guess that's because he was always standing next to Dan Aykroyd.

Beating Travis Vick is no small feat. He’s playing pro level golf, in my opinion.A former Frog is playing in the finals of the Western Am today. F de O qualified as the 4th seed for match play out of a (edit: 156-player) field, then beat Florida's Yuxin Lin, Vandy's Cole Sherwood and UT's Travis Vick in match play to make the final against UNC's Austin Greaser, who made the U.S. Am final last summer. https://www.golfchannel.com/topic/western-amateur
The one plaintiff who is a recent college player is Andy Ogletree, who has status on the Korn Ferry Tour but who had not qualified for the PGA Tour or KFT event the week of the London LIV event but whose appeal for a release was denied because LIV had scheduled future events in the U.S. From p. 57:174. Then, unsatisfied with prohibiting all current Tour members from participating in LIV Golf events, the Tour extended its threat college golfers, explaining that if they played in any LIV Golf events they would be banned from entry into the PGA Tour University program, which provides top college golfers entry into the Tour’s developmental tour (Korn Ferry Tour). Again, this action served no procompetitive purpose, but was simply aimed at thwarting competition by preventing LIV Golf from being able to secure top golfers to participate in its tournaments.
And from Golf.com, an interesting quote from John Daly about the future of LIV and college golf:Mr. Ogletree informed the Tour that he had “spent thousands and thousands of dollars” in his unsuccessful effort to play in Korn Ferry Tour and PGA Tour events. He asked the PGA Tour: “Should I just sit at home on my couch next week and not make any money? It seems like this is your stance.”
"I think they’re probably going to go after young college kids, which would be smart. They’re really good. That way, if they don’t play too good on the LIV, they haven’t committed to the tours, so the Tour can’t really say yes or no. You can go out and apply for your Tour card, go to school, get some Korn Ferry stuff, because they’ve never been a member of it. That’s where I kind of see LIV going."
