Brendan Steele did not seem to find the Muirfield Village course to his liking last week at the Memorial tournament. He struggled finding fairways and greens in regulation and finished tied for 57th. He did rally in the late holes of Friday’s second round, however, to make the cut comfortably by 2 strokes. The Idyllwild native has not missed a cut in singles competition in this fine season — 14 singles tournaments in a row now.

Brendan takes this week off, perhaps to ready himself for next week’s U.S. Open, the second of the four major championships this season.
