ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. – As Jay Seawell gazed down the picturesque range at Sea Island Resort on Tuesday, he could have easily mistaken the occasion for hundreds of similar meetings back home in Tuscaloosa, Ala.
In order, Justin Thomas, Trey Mullinax, Bobby Wyatt and Dru Love were warming up – just like they did in the old days when all four would get ready for one of the ubiquitous qualifying rounds at the University of Alabama.
“I’m sitting on the range today and there’s Bobby and Trey and Justin and Dru, and I’m thinking these guys qualified against each other every day,” said Seawell, Alabama’s head golf coach turned caddie this week at Sea Island Resort.
