Tony Romo got disqualified from his Korn Ferry qualifier the same day he 'parted ways' with CBS Sports
Man, it has not been a great run recently for former Dallas Cowboys star quarterback Tony Romo.
Romo became the talk of the internet when he was arrested over the summer for operating a vehicle while intoxicated in Wisconsin.
Police body cam footage of the arrest went viral, and his mugshot was quickly passed around, with a seemingly endless run of memes made about the 46-year-old.
As one of CBS Sports' lead football analysts, speculation immediately started about his future on television, with the network announcing that he'd been put on indefinite leave.
SIGN UP FOR THE DAILY OUTKICK NEWSLETTER That leave turned into a permanent separation in early October, when news broke that the two sides had agreed to mutually part ways .
Obviously, not the best news for Romo, who, while he started off hot, had recently come under criticism from fans for his analysis and was still owed tens of millions of dollars on his contract.
Well, the news got even worse for him that same day.
Romo is an accomplished, very talented golfer, to the point where he recently participated in a pre-qualifier tournament for a Korn Ferry Tour event .
Far from the PGA Tour, or more likely the Champions Tour, but still impressive for an "amateur" player.
Less impressive? The fact that on the same day he "parted ways" with CBS, Romo was disqualified from that Korn Ferry pre-qualifier.

Per Golf.com, Romo's qualifier was held at the Club at Forest Ridge in Broken Arrow, Okla., where he started with rounds of 76 and 75, putting him well back, 13 strokes to be exact, of the leaders after 36 holes.
That score was still good enough to put him in a decent spot to move on to the next stage of Q-School for the Korn Ferry tour.
Put in a solid showing on Friday? He'd have given himself a realistic chance to advance.
