November 26th, 2009

A congratulations goes out to MyGolfingGoals Academy student, Justin Peters, for moving on to the PGA Tour’s Final Qualifying stage. After a 5th place finish at first stage, Justin went on to fire rounds of 68-67-72-67 in second stage - at the very difficult Hombre Golf Club, in Panama City, Florida.

The final stage of PGA Tour qualifying will be held December 2-7 at Bear Lakes Country Club in West Palm Beach, Florida. This grueling event will be contested over 6 rounds (108 holes) and only the low 25 scores and ties will earn their PGA Tour cards for the 2010 season. The rest of the field will have some degree of status on the Nationwide Tour. The purse for the event is $1,012,500 with $50,000 going to the champion.

Watch live on The Golf Channel. Here are the TV Times:
Dec. 5th 1pm-4pm
