I believe he struggles with his putting.
Oh, he struggles with his putting alright......worse than Kirstie Alley at a Weight Watchers weigh in!!!! Earlier tonight I 3 putt from 6 bloody feet during round 2 of the US Open Aftermath. Are you freaking kidding me???? SIX #$%^ING FEET!!!!!!!! Thankfully I've been on tour for a year now and I've grown quite accustomed to my epic fail with the putter, otherwise my Samsung 24incher would be in about a hundred pieces on the floor right now LOL.
But its not just the putter, though. My aim is rarely on target, even on dinged shots. I just don't know how to compensate for wind, distance, spin, and roll. Since I'm playing the starter ball so much the 'throwing a dart' style of play required for shooting under par is rarely an option for me. Occasionally I still can manage Birdie tries 10 feet or less, but I rarely make any of them. Hell, even on the Driver-Wedge holes if I get lucky enough to land a Cleveland 6 feet away or less, I still can't putt. I recently looked at my stats, and it turns out I'm less than 50% on putts 5 feet and below. Missing at least 6 out of every 10 five footers is certainly not the right way to play this game. Its a big part of the reason why I've never made it to Legend, and I likely never will.
