My Little Brother May Make The US Open

2MinsToPost · #1 06-03-2007, 06:32 PM

Tomorrow is the day. I know some of you may not care for me nor like me because of my antics from posting the craziness I have over the years drunk, but put all that aside for a moment and wish my little brother well tomorrow in his attempt to make The US Open field. He will be playing at OSU's course and the Scioto Country Club here in Central Ohio, and I will be their for every shot. His name is Danny Sorgini.

I have never been more proud of him in my life.

Good luck little bro............................................... .....................

I hope the kid plays his heart out Curt. It's an acheivement alone just making past local qualifying, as those are the ones with very few spots available.

24 spots available today among this field.

No those guys don't have to qualify....Kev can probably rattle it off from the top of his head, but to qualify it has to do with rankings, pga result, pga partners results (euro, asian, etc...) previous open and major records and a whole bunch of other things....they keep spots open for qualifiers and special exemptions....they have sectional qualifying and then regional qualifying and there are hundreds if not thousands of people playing all over the world today for those 25 spots....I was watching TGC yesterday and they mentioned that a lot of the players in the Wales Open were driving somewhere several hours away after yesterdays final round to play in the 36 hole U.S. Open qualifying....anyway not sure that helped at all

There's some serious names on that list.

Good luck to your Bro Curt.

SentToStud · #15 06-04-2007, 12:07 PM

good luck Curt. A good friend of mine's brother qualfied a couple times and has played in the John Deere Classic in the Quad Cities. A lot of fun. Enjoy the day.

GPK · #16 06-05-2007, 02:09 PM

a name that sticks out to me is Trip Kuehne (brother to Hank and Kelli). This guy is amazing. Just started up his own financial investment firm in Dallas...works his ass off....and still have enough game to shoot the scores that he does. I can't tell you how good this guy is. He easily could have made a very nice living on the tour.

Is Kelli on the LPGA Tour anymore? I used to enjoy watching her.....golf, but don't recall seeing her in a while.

Mike...she is still out there...played in 10 or 11 events thus far this year.

When I caddied for Dina last year in Williamsburg, we got paired with Kelli (Sophie Gustafson was our 3rd). This girl made me blush with the language whe was using. I can honestly never recall being in the presence of a female that used the word f*ck so many times in 5 hours.

Maybe she was talking directly to you? Should've taken her up on it.

Samarta · #20 06-06-2007, 06:56 AM

Kev,

Didn't Trip Kuehne lose the amatuer to some guy named Woods....then caddied for both his sister and brother in it?

That's too funny about the language.....I used to live in Wilmington, DE and every year I would either go to or work the McDonalds at DuPont. Well one year, I got to be inside the ropes with Dottie Pepper (Mochrie then) and let me tell you, she is in the four letter hall of fame....most of it was said with a lot of emotion, so there wasn't a lot of discussion, but it was a riot....Oh Laura Davies being the group didn't hurt either....
