Price, proving persistence pays, earned his first trip to the PGA Tour by finishing 12th on the Nationwide Tour money list. Price had gone through Q-school 19 times without success.
ANALYSIS
Price, 40, uses his driving accuracy (ranking 46th) and good ranking in greens-in-regulation (58th) to carry the load inasmuch as his putting is just so-so. He had three top-10s and five top-25s makinfg 15 cuts in 26 starts At age 40, a somewhat weak putter usually doesn't get better. We can't get enthusiastic about Price but expect he'll be one of those players who gives it a first-class shot.
