This year Tadd was presented with a sponsor's exemption. As we are approaching the start of this year's tourney, I had the privilege and pleasure of playing two practice rounds over two days at my club with Tadd Fujikawa. He is every bit of a true talent with an obvious successful future. The first day of play after never seeing or playing my course, he shot a five under, 66 and at one point was 7 under. With a respectable 2 under 69 the next day. He hits the ball so long and straight its ridiculous. I have a really good feeling that he will place very high this year. Good Luck Tadd, and keep up the hard work as it will pay off for you. Tony Clark Willow Creek Country Club Sandy, Utah I am a Manager of a country club that hosts a Nationwide Tournament every year.

He already has a bunch of incredible feats to his name. He became the youngest golfer to qualify for the U.S. Open in almost 70 years and also went on to become the second youngest golfer to make the cut in a PGA event just a few days after his 16th birthday. Till not so long ago most people would have talked of him as the second most famous export from Hawaii to the golfing world but looking at the direction in which her game is headed it will be no surprise if she is sidelined and all focus will be purely on Tadd. Of course there are many who question his idea of turning pro and since he has not set many tournaments on fire people are bound to be a little skeptical especially considering the way in which Michelle Wie’s career is unfolding. Ron Sirak argues that great performance must not be mistaken for greatness and he goes on to explain that point where in he adds that “isolated achievement must not be viewed as sustain brilliance”. Perhaps he has a very strong point. But then the media is so desperately seeking heroes that their judgment might be blinded by their desperation for new stars.
