ITS SUPRISING TO ME THAT THE media has given Ty a relatively easy ride so far given his complete lack of success on the PGA Tour. Starting on Thursday, Tryon begins play at the Bay Hill Inviational - Arnold Palmer's tournament. If ever the honeymoon was to end beteween Tryon and the media, this might be the week because of the large number of media that will be present. Most of the worlds best players will be on hand, and because of Palmer's involvement, Bay Hill is one of The Golf Channel's featured events. If he can play well, the 'hype' will swell back up to where it was in January; but if he struggles - he'll either be mocked, or ignored.

Umm, his best finish to date is T41 and he's made exactly 1 cut as a professional on the PGA Tour. I think that is easily classified as a complete lack of success.
