Jake Morgan: A Golf Life

[Crusader]

Since there is only one TPG3 dynasty, I decided to do one. The only mods I am using is the season disk and created courses. Nothing else is changed. I am using random courses and 1 click. I will be playing out each round.

This is the story of the golf career of Jake Morgan. Jake was born in Oklahoma and discovered his passion for golf while in high school. He proved good enough to get a golf scholarship at the University of Tulsa. He majored in history and planned to become a history teacher, but his college career convinced him that he just might be good enough to make a living playing golf. Therefore he decided to give a try on the JAG tour. This is his story.

Jake enters the first tournament of the JAG Tour, the Hewie Golf Championship played at Redstone CC in Humble, Tx.

The first day Jake starts off hot getting two birdies on the first 3 holes. He hits the water on the 4th and gets a double bogey. He ends the day with a 79 +7 tied for 79th. 2 players lead on the first day shooting 67s.

Day 2, Jake is playing better today for the first half of the round with a +2. Then his game falls apart. He hits the water on 11 and 12 with a triple bogey on 12. He ends the round with a 83, +18 for both days. Needless to say he fails to make the cut.

Gary Christian of England wins with a -8.

Gary Woodland of the US is leading the WSGA. Joost Luiten is leading in Europe. Gary Woodland is ranked #1 in the world.
