Parker will make his first Nationwide Tour start of the season at the Panama Claro Championship in Panama City, Panama. He received a Sponsor Exemption from the tournament based on his PGA Tour accomplishments and success in this event in in 2006 when he tied for 2nd. Parker will tee off at 11:50am Thursday and 7:00am Friday, with the 36 hole cut coming after Friday’s second round. Although Parker doesn’t have exempt status on the Nationwide Tour for 2011, if he were to finish in the Top 25 of this event it would qualify him for the following tournament. A series of those starts and solid finishes can earn him exempt status. Follow his progress this week and all year here on www.parkermclachlin.com and www.pgatour.com .
