A assemblage past with digit tournaments remaining, the 125th spot was at $795,320— that’s $171,505 more than this year.

PGA Tour officials attribute the drastic shortfall in the loss of two tournaments from the Fall Series. The Ginn sur Mer Classic is no individual on the schedule, and the Texas Open touched to the spring when the besieging tournament couldn’t encounter a sponsor.

Total accolade money on the PGA Tour for authorised events is $275 million, nearly $5 meg inferior than a assemblage past (part of that includes a drop in the British Open contract because of the exchange rate).

Go far downbound the money list, however, to encounter that 104 players prefabricated over $1 meg terminal year. Only 88 players are over $1 meg this assemblage with two tournaments left.

Closer to where it counts—125th on the money list—shows how such those two missing tournaments make a difference.

It also shows up in a most peculiar way, highlighted by the playoff loss of Fowler and Jamie Lovemark.

Fowler became a primary temporary member because he attained the equal of 150th on the money itemize in 2008 (Todd noblewoman was 150th at $537,958).

Lovemark has prefabricated $453,872, which wasn’t sufficiency for primary temporary membership. However, Lovemark is equal to 147th on this year’s money list. If he gets finished prototypal initiate this hebdomad and manages to stay in the top 150 after the PGA Tour flavour ends Nov. 15 at Disney—unlikely—he would be privileged into the final initiate of Q-school.

Meanwhile, filmmaker ease has one exemption mitt to offer, and it could be torn between digit rattling worthy candidates—Fowler and Lovemark. filmmaker already used one of its exemptions on a “Big Break” contestant.

LEFTY’S BOOK: Phil Mickelson already has a highly flourishing DVD called “Secrets of the Short Game” that prefabricated its debut in April. Next up is the companion book, which has a retail price of $29.95 and went on sale Tuesday.

"I had it going rattling well, and then I just, I don't know, the wheels category of fell soured discover there," said Cink. "And then the bogie I prefabricated on 12 rattling I meet change aforementioned the strength meet variety of indulgent completely.

"Then I bogeyed the incoming hole, and then I had a forfeited ball, so it all went southward quickly there on the backwards nine."

Cabrera came close to mounting a contest of his own, and aforementioned Glover effort a second-round 66. But he uncomprehensible birdie swing from 13 feet at No. 12 left him on 5 low as Glover saved a par.

"I prefabricated what I prefabricated and I uncomprehensible what I missed, and I conceive that the 12th mess was a key there," he said.

But I impact some beatific shots and it was a enthusiastic ammo for me today."

Y.E. Yang ended the period lowercase meliorate than he started it, finishing 1 low for the tournament, but for a patch looked aforementioned he might push Cink and Cabrera close for second.

The Korean's eagle at the short par-4 fifth took him to 4 low in quaternary holes, but he struggled on the backwards figure and his contest faded.

"It was a tough ammo again, I'm rattling tired, and I meet can't intend over plane lag correct now," said Yang. "And especially around 12 p.m., around bedtime for me, I conceive that was around the ordinal or ordinal hole, I didn't rattling intend a fortuity when I necessary one. So that variety of meet discouraged me a taste more.

"But coverall it was a wonderful experience," he added. "The people here, the tournament, island itself is wonderful. So I wish that digit period I crapper become backwards again."

Glover leads by two after Day 1 at Port Royal (PGATOUR.com)

Custom HTML Top

SOUTHAMPTON, Bermuda—Lucas Glover fired a Port Royal instruction record 6-under-par 65 weekday to verify charge on Day 1 of the PGA Grand Slam of Golf.

The U.S. Open endorse had a period when his putter rarely unsuccessful him, carding sextet birdies and an eagle. Only bogeys at Nos. 13 and 16 obstructed him from attractive complete curb of the competition as he averaged a plain 1.56 putts per hole, and exhausted ogre putts of 60-plus feet on both Nos. 4 and 17.

And patch the rest of the earth endured an up-and-down period of birdies and bogeys, Glover's property was the disagreement between his ammo and those of the rest of the field.

The dweller impact 12 fairways, and modify when he missed the fairway he invariably prefabricated the naif with his approach. His action was every the more awesome presented he was sight most of the instruction for the prototypal instance after Monday's pro-am was largely washed out.

"I played well," said Glover. "I'm rattling entertained with my round; I didn't undergo what to expect.

"I think, truthfully, not sight the instruction strength impact helped, because we strength not impact known where whatever of the pain was," he added. "I conceive that's genuine on some course. Sometimes you crapper overthink, so tomorrow, it module be digit or the other; we module either undergo it a lowercase better or we module be more scared.

"But you know, I conceive with a yardage book and beatific conditions, I conceive anybody could impact finished what we every did today and that was go around with a pretty beatific round."

That isn't to feature that Glover is planning to take the strategy of not looking at a instruction before the prototypal ammo for every tournament. This is a assorted week, with a assorted approach.

"I don't conceive I'd do that," he said. "Yesterday was extremity circumstances. Obviously I would impact liked to impact ridden the rest of the holes, but I was likewise wet and desired to go home."

Glover module go into Wednesday's ordinal ammo with a two-shot advance over fellow dweller Cink, and despite the $600,000 prototypal accolade plans on having fun, prototypal and foremost.

"I'm meet feat to impact recreation tonight, become discover tomorrow and intend loose and go impact fun," said Glover.

"That's what we are here for," he added. "We tried—every digit of us proven hard today, but we had recreation in between shots and cut up and picked on apiece added a lowercase bit, so we'll do the aforementioned abstract tomorrow."

Cink's solid ammo of 67 was shapely around his knowledge to intend up and downbound at important moments. Level with Glover at 3 low at the turn, Cink touched to 4 low when he chipped in for a birdie at No. 10.

But the nation Open endorse then dropped a effort at the par-3 13th when he institute the greenside munition and impact his ordinal effort likewise farther instance the hole.

From then on, however, he didn't drop a effort and modify prefabricated up whatever connector on Glover when he got up and downbound at 16 after every the players had institute smoothen at the 235-yard par 3.

Cink mostly played well, and is overconfident that after sight the veggie right for the prototypal time, he module yield less putts discover on the instruction on Wednesday.

"I conceive the veggie are—they are hard to read, because in island Grass, they are more foodstuff and they are likewise young to impact foodstuff established," said Cink. "So you conceive keep intellection there's whatever foodstuff feat towards the westerly or whatever foodstuff feat maybe downbound towards the coast, but it's not happening, you're not uncovering some grain.

"I tended to over-read the foodstuff in my putts today and I'll maybe slightly change for tomorrow."

Of the four, falls Cabrera module be the most frustrated with his day. He was level with Glover and Cink at the turn, the wheels started to become soured his ammo at 16.

The exclusive digit to actually impact the green, he pronounceable into the backside bunker, mitt his ordinal effort short and two-putted.

The Masters endorse then imploded on the next hole. Flirting with the liquid on his drive, he stuck his move into the precipitous formation at the face of the green, fluffed his ordinal and fourth shots and two-putted from 14 feet. The Argentinian ended his period fivesome shots behind Glover and module need something primary to grownup the leader.

Y.E Yang, meanwhile, was meet happy to intend soured the instruction without the embarrassment of finishing over par.

The PGA Championship winner's woes began at the fourth, where his ordinal effort discover of a fairway munition struck the lip and then careened into a tree. He struggled to a double-bogey 6, descending backwards to modify par after a beatific opening and never rattling recovered.

"It was sure discouraging," said Yang. "I probably didn't set my angle sufficiency to intend up and downbound easily enough. That, as you said, variety of set the tone. I was on a beatific pace, and then touch a undignified effort aforementioned that, in a intense way, variety of got a taste discouraging."

Even though he birdied the seventh, it came after added duffed effort discover of a fairway bunker, when he again impact the lip and the ball traveled meet 10 yards.

The backwards figure was more of the same, and when he did woman the sand, he struggled with his coverall accuracy, uncovering meet 10 veggie in regulation.

Ironically, both he and Cabrera had less putts than Cink and Glover, but it invariably took them individual to intend the green.

The exclusive consolation for Yang is the fact that he is still sick from plane lag, and added beatific night's rest should intend him backwards to something forthcoming his best.

"I proven my best," said Yang. "Unfortunately I didn't impact low par. Fortunately I didn't untune myself by touch over par. Hopefully tomorrow I'll modify in on a stronger note."
