Monday
 v.— «Pratt needed only a decent finish or two in another Nationwide event to earn full status. However, that meant chasing the Tour out West and playing in 18-hole Monday qualifiers where 150-200 players would compete for 14 available slots. The process is called “Monday-ing,” and Pratt “Mondayed” his way into five tournaments.» —“Pratt’s first pro year pays dividends” by Zack McMillin Commercial Appeal (Memphis, Tenn.) Oct. 18, 2005.
