In late October, Jay shot 9 under par at Pinewild Golf Club in Pinehurst through four rounds to easily pass through the First Qualifying Stage of the PGA Tour Q-School. He will start the Second Stage in Texas on November 18 with a chance to make the Final Stage in December.
 
In 2009, Jay made 8 of 11 cuts on the Tarheel Tour with a scoring average of 69.93, which is almost three shots better than his 2008 average! He also finished 4th in the Sun Trust State Open of Virginia, and played in one Nationwide Tour event.
 
This was Jay's first year being sponsored by the Tour Golf Investment Group, and we are all excited about the season and his performance in the First Stage of Q-School.
