BROADCASTING BOOTH MAY BE NEXT FOR Q SCHOOL FAILURE RICH BEEM

                                         FROM THE CBS SPORTS.COM WEBSITE

Former US PGA champion Rich Beem (pictured) failed to make it through the second stage of US Q-school last week, leaving him only limited status as a past winner for what would appear to be limited room in a short season. 
So what's next for the Beemer? Perhaps a move to the broadcast booth - in Europe.
Beem said he has been contacted by Sky Sports to do commentary for US PGA Tour events that are shown in Europe, similar to what Butch Harmon does at the majors and the World Golf Championships. 
Beem says his broadcasting experience is limited, though the job would come naturally to him.
"I've got the gift of gab," Beem said. "I am full of a lot of things I want to say "
Beem worked for TNT Sports at the US PGA Championship in 2010 at Whistling Straits, with two days for the 3-D coverage on the par-3 11th and par-3 17th, and then Saturday and Sunday covering the marquee group.
