Ty Tryon tries for a comeback

Author: Jeremy  |  Category: Uncategorized

7 years ago, a young golfer by the name of Ty Tryon burst onto the national golf stage, becoming the youngest player since 1957 to make the PGA Tour. To do that, of course, he needed to get through the PGA Tour Qualifying rounds, including the rough 6-day 90 hole Finals.  He and only 6 other people qualified that year, and he was on his way to being a full fledged pro-golfer.  On the PGA Tour, however, he had trouble with his health and has had trouble finding his stride again.  Yesterday, in the first stage of this year’s Qualifying Tour, the 24-year-old shot a 3rd-round 87, putting him well out of contention for the moment.  Afterwards, when asked for comment, he replied “Everything to be said is up on the scoreboard.”  He has tough road ahead, because he has to make up for his play yesterday; more importantly, he has to get through the mental block that comes from having started so badly.  He wants to “make the complicated simple again.”  Isn’t that the real beauty of golf?  It’s all so complicated but still very simple.
