Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 5059803, member: 1969"] Could be the next big thing... or nothing -- but I remember about a dozen years ago (maybe add a year or two), when Matteo Manassero and Ryo Ishikawa were doing big things as 16/17/18 year olds. And they are not doing much anymore around the age of 30. Manassero made the Cut at the Masters at 16 years old. Won 2 events on the European tour at 17, I forget the name of the golf book **, but there was a fascinating part about Ty Tryon another young phenom who made some cuts on the PGA Tour at 17. He said it was so easy doing great things as a 16 or 17 year old on tour - there was no pressure, it wasn't a "job". Then he realized when he got on the tee for the first time as a pro (after getting his card at Q-School) that it was now a "job" and that really ****** with his head. ** it was a book by John Feinstein following players at the old PGA Tour School.
