re: John Peterson- Early Retirement

Even if I hated the tour life, I feel like I would try and grind it out another 2, 3, or 5 years. He has the talent to make a few more million over that period of time and really set his family up well financially for life. There’s not many jobs out there that pay as well as a PGA Tour pro.

I do question why he is choosing to play out his eligibility in these last few events if this is how he truly feels.

My thoughts exactly. On a smaller scale, I cant stand the house I'm in right now, but if I can stick it out for another 3-5 years I should be in a good spot to get the type of house I want without putting financial burdens on the family. Why not stick it out and pocket that extra bit? Almost seems as though his injury exemptions are about up, and he cant stand the thought of having to go back down to the WebTour or try to qualify for his card again.
