Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo decided at the last minute not to play in a qualifying round for a spot in the Byron Nelson Golf Classic this week. He made the cut during a preliminary round to qualify for another attempt scheduled yesterday.
A problem arose because it was also the first day of Organized Team Activities for the Cowboys. Owner Jerry Jones and Coach Wade Phillips appeared happy that Romo made the decision to join the team instead of playing golf.
What strikes me odd is that Romo must have had full intent on playing yesterday, but thought differently at the last minute. He knew of the potential conflict, but appeared to be ready to miss the O.T.A.
He spoke as if nothing happened. Although this O.T.A is not mandatory, it does not say much if the team's starting QB decides to blow it off.
Later next month, Romo will attempt to qualify for the U.S. Open. Apparently, there are no conflicts with that date.
