Kenny Perry skips qualifying for US Open, making Ryder Cup No.1 priority
Kenny Perry won last week, but decided not to try to qualify for the US Open. He’s from Kentucky, doesn’t like playing Torrey Pines in San Diego, didn’t want to play 36 holes in one day for the qualifier b/c he’s getting older, and wants to concentrate instead on making the Ryder Cup to be played this year at Valhalla in Kentucky.
Hmmm…Perry’s logic sounded much better before he won the Memorial. Now, he’s No. 5 on the points list, so he’s a virtual shoe-in to make the team. Why skip out on this country’s national championship? I just don’t get it.
