Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo failed in his bid to qualify for the Byron Nelson Championship.
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo failed in his bid to qualify for the Byron Nelson Championship.
The Pro Bowl signal caller was among the golfers trying to earn a spot during the pre-qualifying event at Stonebridge Ranch Country Club in McKinney on Tuesday.
Romo, who had failed to qualify for the US Open after shooting 80 on Monday, shot a 79 on Tuesday.
But it could have been so much better as his hopes of moving on to the next stage of qualifying were scuppered by a triple bogey on 16 – according to The Dallas Morning News.
He then bogeyed both 17 and 18 to complete a disastrous finish.
Before that Romo had been two over with three holes to play and in contention to finish in the top 23 and move on to the next round.
