en [The $147,000 Mediate won last weekend vaulted him into the top 30 on the 2003 PGA Tour Money Leaders list, which, if he stays there, would earn him a spot in the season-ending Tour Championship in November. That's a goal, he said, but his recent good play has him aiming slightly higher.] I'm getting closer to the winning thing, ... Earlier in the year, everybody was asking, 'What's wrong?' I had a period from March through June where my body just wasn't feeling that good. You can't come out here at 50 percent and beat the best. This week was fun, finally, again. It was almost really good.

en Lindbergh made the flight to win a prize, not as a personal objective. I really saw the power of that prize written out for me in hard numbers: Nine teams spent [a combined] $400,000 to win that $25,000.

en From a budgetary standpoint, we?re nowhere close to the Tour de Georgia or Tour of California. They have budgets around $3 to $4 million. Ours is under $100,000.

Even though our course and level of road racing in the event mimics those of the larger events, in terms of the prize money we can offer and the caliber of athlete we hope to get to come, we really can?t compete until we have a larger budget. That?s the hard and fast reality. We?d like to get to that budget, but we?re not there yet.

So, it was not so good for me not to ride the Tour, but after my broken ankle in the spring, I was good in the rest of the classics. I also hope to be good for the rest of the season and now I'm a little bit like in the Vuelta, or maybe a little bit better. I'm happy.

en I don't care about the money. It's two steps closer to winning. I have to win. It's just so hard to get on tour now. If there's any week I have a chance, it's this week.

en I don't mind competing against Cup drivers but I've got a problem competing against Cup teams.
