In yet another disappointing week for Peter, he has missed the cut at the Crowne Plaza Colonial at the Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth and not only did he miss but he missed by a large margin.
Peter will now look to next week's Memorial event in Columbus in Ohio in the hope that he can get things moving forward on a golf course that has previously been good to him.

Peter is in Fort Worth this week as he looks to reverse a year of struggle to date. The Crowne Plaza Invitational is being played at one of Peter's favourite layouts at the Colonial Country Club and hopefully this can inspire him to better things.
Peter has regularly played this event well including when 3rd in 2005 and 4th in 2006. He was unable to play last year during his injury break.
This week and next week's Memorial layouts are two of Peter's favourites on the PGA Tour and it is hoped that they can provide some forward momentum.

Peter's form woes continued this week at the HP Byron Nelson Championship when he missed the cut by nine shots after rounds of 73 and 75.
Peter now tees it up a one of his favourite courses at this week's Crown Plaza Colonial in Fort Worth but has decided to forgoe any attempt to qualify for the British Open, that qualifying being staged this week in Dallas.
Peter would preferto focus his attention on the task at hand, that being to get his game on track on the PGA Tour.

Peter is in Irving near Dallas this week for the HP Byron Nelson Championship. Peter has had a week off and is keen to see how improved eyesight will impact on his game. Peter recently had new contacts put in place after struggling for several years with eyesight that had been initially improved with Lasik eye surgery but which has deteriorated of late.
"I have to say it has made a difference," said Peter last week from his home in Orlando. "As to just how that will translate on the golf course remains to be seen but it sure feels better."
Peter has played this event on six occasions with a best of 9th in 2003. The tournament begins a stretch of tournaments and venues in which Peter has traditionally played well including next week's Colonial and the Memorial. Peter will also attempt US Open Sectional Qualifying after the Memorial.

This past week has been a shocker for Bulldogs supporter Peter Lonard. Not only did his team get robbed by a controversial referring decision in their match against the Dragons on Friday last but a week earlier he had lost a bet with his good friend and manager Mick Graham on the match against the Tigers
The loss of the bet was bad enough but as a result of that loss he was forced to wear the Tiger's jersey during a lunch he and Mick had together, rubbing salt into the wound. Pete was so confident of a Bulldogs victory that he gave Mick 6.5 points as Pete figured that without their great playmaker Benjie Marshall the West Tigers would struggle.
The end result was a win to the Bulldogs 22 - 20 but with the points given taken into account, Pete lost the bet and during lunch together last week in Orlando Peter was seen to be wearing the Tiger's jersey. (see photo).
