TIM ROSAFORTE HAS JUMPED onto the Tryon bandwagon. As recently as October 16th he wrote, Tryon doesn't have the charisma of Kuchar, or the game of (Charles) Howell, and could be in for a long road. Compare that with his latest offering, If Tryon doesn't get his card, he can take seven sponsors exemptions on the PGA Tour and use the Buy.com as a learning process. But for those who have seen his game, that scenario isn't likely. Just seeing Tryon launch balls on Monday at Bear Lakes made observers realize this kid is the real deal. Glad to see you finally come around Tim.

There is a picture of Tryon balancing a putter on his finger {{ http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/020227/168/16vii.html }} at the Genuity Championship. But from what I've seen, it doesn't look like thats actually his putter - everything I've seen is that he uses a Callaway White Hot with an offset hosel. I'm not sure exactly what model it is.
