I actually saw him play at the Dogwood. I think that 64 was the low round of the week. Nearly would've won that one, had a putt or two dropped for him over the last few holes.
He had his chances. Burned more lips then a blind dentist over the last 5 or 6 holes.
His chip onto 17 in the final round was one of the best shots I've ever seen there...he had NO chance after that tee shot but dang near holed it out!!!! I told somebody sitting with me what shot he needed to hit, which was a "hit the stick to slow down the ball" shot....and sure enough, that is precisely what Bruce did. Tell him I was SO impressed by that one.
He had a great attitude though he must have been very frustrated.

That's awesome that you got to see him play blader (I knew you were from Atlanta). I will tell him about that shot...that should freak him out lol!

Impressive stuff, including the degree from UVA. That is a great part of the country down there...my brother and his wife currently reside in Charlottesville. IN fact, he just started a new job at UVA this week.
