I think Paul's comment is correct. Sometimes there are players so far above their competition, that a loss by them is rare. But the purses for the 2 thru 5 finishers are very high. The Goydos', Perry's, Kim's, Johnson's and Mallinger's can make a good living with 2 thru 5 finishes. Every now and then one of them makes a breakthrough.
With that prespective I'm very happy for Paul and John and the golf they are playing. I wish I could be there, but it will never happen.

: Right now, Paul is looking good for maybe
