PGA Tour Prequalifing Results

Hello everyone, I don't think that I could be in a better mood right now. I am sitting in the airport and my flight just got delayed, but you know what, it doesn't bother me because yesterday I made it through the Pre-Qualifier for the PGA Tour. I shot (-5) in my last two rounds to make it by one shot. I finished the four round tournament at (-2) 286 in 36th place, 42 players from the field made it through to the next round. Had it not been for my putter I would not have made it through. I was doing my stats this morning and realized how good I really did putt. I had 29 putts the first round, 27 putts the second round, 25 putts the third round, and 25 putts the fourth round. That is an average of 26.5 putts per round, that is awesome-my best putting performance ever and to do it here at the qualifier was incredible. My four rounds were 74, 73, 68, 71. Another amazing stat that shows both the good and the bad is that I made 22 birdies for the four rounds, that's more than 5 birdies a round. The reason why that shows the bad is you realize how many mistakes I made by only shooting (-2) with 22 birdies. I mad 4 double bogies and 1 triple bogey, those I need to get rid of if I want to make it through the next stage. I am just about to get on the plane and head to Atlanta to play in the tour championship for the Hooters Tour. Please be praying for me and checking my blog for updates. Thank you for your interest.
