Captures and Captions - Tommy Gainey

Since its inception in 1962, Wal-mart's slogan has never changed. The phrase, Everyday Low Prices was to follow the aggressive Wal-Mart logo everywhere it was printed. That was until a short time ago when Wal-Mart sacrificed their current logo for something a little more green. A simple flower now accompanies an anything but bold font choice. And the new slogan: Save Money, Live Better is also a greener. But the company's passion to provide the consumer with the lowest prices possible and drive surrounding businesses out of town hasn't changed.

At this weeks Children's Miracle Network Classic presented by Wal-mart, many players were hoping to stay (or get) in the top 125, so that next year their profit potential wasn't cut in half like a mom and pop shop within a 30 mile radius of a Super Wal-Mart. Nothing short of a win would secure full exemption for Tommy "Two Gloves" Gainey. A 30 on the back nine Sunday left him just one shot back of Davis Love III who captured his 20th win and a lifetime exemption on the PGA Tour.
