Tony Romo was better at the quarterback thing and is better at the announcing thing than he is at the golf thing. For not being a pro golfer, the former Cowboys quarterback and current CBS analyst did OK.

Competing in a pro tournament, Romo didn’t do so well.

He finished last in his PGA Tour debut at the Corales Puntacana Resort & Club Championship in the Dominican Republic. He shot a 10-over 82 in the second round on Friday, finishing with a two-day total of 159. Romo missed the cut of 1-under by 16 strokes.

Brice Garnett leads at 13-under.

Romo earned entry into the tournament on a sponsor’s exemption.

  3. Once a Cowboy, always a Cowboy. That’s the difference between Dallas and Washington. We didn’t idolize our version of him in Choke Cousins, we tossed him away like the chokeartist he was. We win Superbowls.

  4. I played for years when I was younger. The skill required to shoot 15 over par, over 2 days on a PGA course, is impressive to say the least. If I shot 15 over on one round at my basic county course I used to be thrilled.

  7. It’s an ego thing with him.

    Now just go out, ride around in the cart, drink beer and have some fun.

  14. Par for the course with Romo.
    But he’s better than Tiger, right? I mean tiger can’t even finish an event anymore, can he?

  15. Not his best outing, but im sure no other former pro football player could have done better. Ive never understood the tendency to bash Romo. He was a pretty good QB…certainly cant think of a better undrafted QB in the modern era.

    You need to come out of your cave once in awhile and blow the stink off.

    I guess the old saying Football prepares you for life is actually true

    Really no reason for comments after this one. Perfect.

  18. And when Arnold Palmer was in high school in Latrobe, PA, his high school football coach told him he was wasting his time playing golf.

  19. “Not his best outing, but im sure no other former pro football player could have done better. Ive never understood the tendency to bash Romo. He was a pretty good QB…certainly cant think of a better undrafted QB in the modern era.”

    Kurt Warner. Warren Moon.

    Well, at least he tried! He can’t be great at everything 🙂

    Ya, cause he was real great the way he won TWO career playoff games and all.

  22. Interesting that PFT gets so worked up about a football player playing baseball, but manages to play it totally cool about a football player playing golf…

    Yes both of those were great undrafted QB’s, but you must have missed the words “modern era”… Moon? Dude he’s 20 years ago, that ain’t modern era… Warner, closer but still not even in this decade! Romo is closer to “modern era” QB’s. I get the first guys point.

  33. Heard he had a good round going. Then, on the back 9, he putted one directly to the gopher. All downhill after that.

  35. I love the fact that he isnt afraid to fail. I hope he continues to try and make the cut.
