Brian Gay Wins The St. Jude Classic

Congratulations to Lifemax Independent Distributors Brian Gay and Kimberly Gay!

Brian thought so little of his chances to play his way into the U.S. Open that he made plans to take a week off.

His play at the St. Jude Classic in Memphis changed that. Gay shot a 4-under par 66 for an 18-under 262 total to win the tournament and guarantee him a spot in the U.S. Open.

“Right now I don’t know if we’re going home first or what we’re going to do, whether we spend tomorrow traveling, going home and repacking,” he said. “Get to work on Tuesday I guess.”

Gay came to Memphis as one of seven players with a chance to grab the Open exemption as a multiple winner in the last calendar year. He responded with his second win in his last five events and the third victory of his career, beating David Toms and Bryce Molder by five strokes.

“I felt I had to go out and play golf. If I won, I’d get the chance to play,” he said.

The U.S. Open will begin Thursday, June 18th at the Bethpage State Park Black course in Farmingdale, New York.
