That's because Lauer advanced from pre-qualification all the way to the final stage of the grueling PGA Tour Q-School.
Progressing that far has given Lauer some fortuitous aide in the form of financial help.
"I've signed with an agent and I've done that move," Lauer said. "A lot of things have come about it, because a lot of people look at it in terms of it being my first year. And how many first-year guys out of college never would make it that far ... I've definitely seen some doors open already."
Lauer said his plan is to Monday qualify for Nationwide Tour events and make a few dollars early to set himself up for the remainder of 2011.
In other words, getting off to a hot start to secure exemptions into additional tournaments down the road.
