Adam Mitchell and Steven Fox already know they will begin the 2014 season with some status on the Web.com Tour.

Their performance over the next six rounds, the final stage of Web.Com Tour qualifying school, will determine how long they will be exempt.

They’ll need to battle the elements, the PGA West Stadium Course in La Quinta, Calif, and most importantly, they’ll need to win the battle in their own heads.

“From the start to finish, you have to be emotionally and mentally there,” said Mitchell, who played at McCallie in high school. “You have to stay physically and mentally fresh. You can’t beat yourself up.”

But it’s easy to do in a tournament that determines your employment for the next 12 months. Either on the Web.com Tour for part of it, or for at least Mitchell, back to mini-tours across the southeast.
