Right here’s how a lot each participant made 

This week, on the Black Desert Championship, Kevin Streelman made PGA Tour lower No. 301, one week after making PGA Tour lower No. 300, and folk have requested him to reminisce about PGA Tour No. 1. 

He’s completely satisfied to. He remembers it nicely. 

“It was the ’05 Milwaukee Open at Brown Deer Park,” Streelman mentioned this week. “I used to be on the mini-tours. I Monday-qualified. Speak about a nerve-racking Friday afternoon spherical as a result of I had nothing to my title. I used to be dwelling out of my mother’s automobile, in my mother and father’ basement, simply crisscrossing the nation, making an attempt to play mini-tour occasions, and I Monday’ed there and made a lower, which I knew on the time final place was like $10,000, which might pay for my Q-school and just about the Dakotas Tour. It was a really significant factor for me.

“I feel I completed twenty fifth and made like $25,000, and I used to be like, this paid for the remainder of my 12 months and my entry charges, and I feel it really paid for Courtney’s engagement ring.”

Mother’s automobile? What sort of automobile was it?  

“My mother had a Nissan Altima,” Streelman mentioned. “It was a 1993 Nissan Altima. It was a bit tight within the backseat.

“However these are nice reminiscences.”

What number of miles have been on it?

“I put about 250,000 on my mother’s,” Streelman mentioned, “after which I received a second one and put about 200,000 miles on that one, after which I had simply purchased a brand new Camry my fifth 12 months on the mini-tours and I received my PGA Tour card and traded that in for a Porsche 911 after I had my first 12 months on the PGA Tour.”

The place did he bathe and such?

“Yeah, Motel 6’s, Tremendous 8’s,” Streelman mentioned. “It was no matter I may do.”

Right here, a reporter seen Streelman was smiling as he was telling the tales. He was requested if the journey from PGA Tour lower No. 1 to PGA Tour No. 301 was tough.

It was, he mentioned, and, in a method, it wasn’t. 

“It’s gut-wrenching, but it surely’s like — there’s like a magnificence to it, too, the place you may have nowhere to go however up,” Streelman mentioned. “I used to be lucky to have a diploma from a pleasant college, however I needed to get out right here. There was no different possibility. There wasn’t a second possibility.

“I feel when you may have a second possibility, you don’t obtain the primary possibility. I actually checked out it that method. No matter I’ve received to do, if I’ve set to work at Kierland, if I’ve received to caddie at Whisper Rock, if I’ve received to substitute-teach at my highschool, which I did all these issues, then I’m going to do it to save cash to provide myself an opportunity. Then when I’ve the chance you’ve received to seize it, and I used to be lucky to do it on my sixth strive in ’07 at Q-school and I’ve been out right here 17 years later.”
