T24th, a XXX payday and paling around Pebble Beach with Kelly Slater - and we haven't even gotten to the good part regarding the latest on Pat Perez.

64. That's the magic number.

The new World Rankings were released today and PP edged out Anthony Kim for the 64th slot a week before the Accenture World Golf Championship in Tucson, Arizona next weekend.

Barring a late withdrawl - a highly unlikely occurance as last place earns $40K - No. 64 Perez will go toe-to-toe with No. 1 Tiger Woods. Should another player pull up limp, No. 2 Phil Mickelson would be the consolation prize.

Next week will mark Perez's first World Golf event to date - on a grand stage, against an all time great. Tune in to see how it all plays out.

Until then, a trek back to Los Angeles, another crack at the Nissan Open and a chance to build on last year's 8th place finish.

Perez's recent history at the Nissan:

2007 - 66-69-75-65 - (8th)
2006 - 68-74-76-75 - (T77th)
2005 - 71-71 - (T58th)
2004 - 71-68-75-75 - (T74th)
2003 - 74-69-69-71 - (T32nd)
2002 - 71-69-70-68 - (T23rd)
