I remember the comment distinctly, as if Peter Jacobsen muttered it to me yesterday.
Only it came at the 2005 U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2 in North Carolina, at a time when Puyallup's Ryan Moore was finishing up his final week as an amateur golfer.
Jacobsen, never one to mince words, had just finished his round. I asked him about the outlook on Moore as a professional, and the veteran had one firm opinion about Moore's upcoming career.
Jacobsen: When you dominate in the amateur ranks, "99.9 percent" of the time you're going to do the same in the professional ranks.
So what's the deal 31/2 years later?
