Nick Flanagan To Play Nationwide Tournament This Week
Despite earning an immediate promotion to the PGA Tour by winning last weeks 2007 Xerox Classic, Nick Flanagan has chosen to honor his commitment to play in the National Mining Association Pete Dye Classic at the Pete Dye Golf Club in Bridgeport, WV.
