Getting to KnowWho the hell is Johnson Wagner?


I searched the web for a good half hour trying to find things for the one-time ongoing segment of "getting to know your tournament leader," and obviously couldn't find bananas on this guy.

Here is what I know of the guy - he's enormous for a golfer (6'3", 230), finished just out of the top-125 last year on tour (127) and went to Virginia Tech. Yep, no problem, I'll give you a second to get back from falling out of your chair.

Back? Good.

Anyway, this Johnson Wagner guy has a good chance of punching a ticket to his first Masters if he could continue playing like this, notching rounds of 63-69 to be clubhouse leading this virgin PGA Tour orgy.

Someone, Davis Love III is in ninth place, which is good news, but Mr. Hasn't Missed a Major since 1990 is seven shots back of Mr. Interesting.

Adam Scott, who shot nine-under yesterday, has yet to tee off.
