Disappointed in Milwaukee - Monday, July 23, 2007

MILWAUKEE, Wis. -- He just wasn't able to get it rolling this past weekend at the U.S. Bank Championship in Milwaukee. "I know that I've only played 14 events this year but the U.S. Bank Championship was by far my most disappointing," Notah Begay III said on Sunday. "I've been putting in many practice hours and trying to maintain a positive outlook but it's awfully discouraging to go out and play the way I did this past week in Milwaukee." Notah managed one birdie versus eight bogeys over the first two rounds en route to missing the cut by a few strokes. "Sometimes it's just better to put bad weeks like these behind you and focus on the next outing," Notah said. "That's exactly what I plan to do by taking the week off in order to be ready for the Reno-Tahoe Open - the site of my first PGA Tour victory." The RTO, which Notah won in 1999, is held at the scenic Montreux Golf and Country Club. "I've always liked returning to the site of my first PGA Tour victory because the memories seem to keep you in a good frame of mind," Notah said. "I could use a good week to get the momentum turned in the opposite direction. I'm hoping for some continued good driving supported by better putting."
