[Golf Topic] 'Former NFL Star' Romo "US Open Qualifier Eliminated"

[Asia Economy Reporter No Woo-rae] ○…Former NFL star Tony Romo (USA, photo) was eliminated in the US Open qualifiers.

On the 13th (Korean time), he shot 3 over par in the first regional qualifier held at Bridge Golf Course (par 72) in Guntersville, Texas, USA. Unfortunately, he fell short by 2 strokes and did not advance to the playoff for the single final qualifying spot. In 2010, he passed the first qualifier and advanced to the final qualifier but failed to secure a spot in the main tournament. Romo is a 'living legend' who played as a quarterback for the NFL Dallas Cowboys before retiring and working as a broadcaster.

He is a well-known golf enthusiast with excellent skills. He has been consistently participating in tournaments hoping to become a professional player, but has yet to reach the main tournament. In 2019, he played as a sponsor exemption in the PGA Tour Safeway Open, shooting 4 over par over two days and was cut. In April this year, he also challenged the Korn Ferry Tour Veritex Bank Championship but finished last. Romo said, "My top priorities are football and family, and next is golf."
