Monday Q Info golf news, qualifier stories, and live results

Tomorrow there could be one of the most unlikely @ChampionsTour winners ever. Monday Q Jay Jurecic is tied for the lead with Zach Johnson headed into the final round. Jurecic was a school teacher for decades in a tiny little town in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. He didn't play high school golf or college golf and didn't even attempt the game until he was 18. He became good relative quickly but teaching and the fact he lived in UP of Michigan aren't conducive to getting better. Yet somehow he did…and then some. In fact he would spend his summers on the Dakotas Tour playing mini-tour events. And he had a win and numerous good finishes. When he turned 50 in 2021 he resigned from teaching and started chasing the Champions Tour. But he's only qualified for 3 events in five years. Between those events he played wherever he could. The guy is a true grinder. Last season he won the Michigan Tournament of Champions, most the players were 30 years younger than him. He did it by making eagle on the last hole when his 3-wood from 260 hit the flag and be tapped I'm for eagle to tie for the lead. He then won in a playoff. Tomorrow a former teacher from a tiny town in the UP of Michigan, who didn't play high school or college golf, and in just his 4th ever Champions event will tee off tied for the lead. If that doesnt make you love Monday Qs, well I can't help you.

I want to tell you about my friend. He was fired in the fallout from the Good Good/ Callaway ad. He made a mistake and it cost him his job. It will always be part of his story. But it isn't his whole story and I thought you should know the rest. https://t.co/eggToOybC6

I was just sent a video of someone going hammer on a club pro because they couldn't get caddies (the club has very limited caddies in the fall once kids go back to school). The person was wildly out of line and I would post it but I don't want the person who shot the video to get in trouble. But I feel so bad for club pros. 95% of people are great at clubs, the 5% outweights the 95% and its not close. Give up your summers, your weekends, your holidays and get bitched at by people who will never be happy. Every club pro deserves a raise.

Not deleting cause we know they won.
