I understand this thread completely. It's almost like it's on purpose. It's very perplexing coming from a noted ball striker. There's one thing that makes it more prominent than it really is... The TV coverage will wait to air his (and other Canadians) play until he faulters. Then air that right away.

Offically given up on Graham DeLaet

Very happy for him. Nice to see him keep it together.
An amazing 4 holes stretch Saturday.
You would have thought a 69 on the last day of a major would have moved him up in the final standings.
Interesting seeing the stats for the rounds had him #1 GIR & Approaches to the Green (5th tee to green). Putting, Shots around the Green & Sand Saves were his weakness.
Such an interesting game where it comes down to 2-3 shots over 280.

Graham is one of the better putters on tour
He is a green hitting machine:
And not just greens in regulation, but also proximity:
He has been seeing a short game guy and psychologist for over a year and it is reaping big rewards.
His scrambling percentage is terrible though. Likely a result of both missing greens in the wrong places as well as being a poor chipper.
But he has been improving. Drastically. It takes a long time to improve against the field though. But if you compare against himself there has been great improvement over last year (which was his roughest year putting)
SG Putting:
2017:.3652016:-.2112015:-.0122014:-.0932013:.100

Unless of course he is just a keyboard warrior

It's like TIger who had been documented and told millions of times he was going for Jack's major record of 18 wins. Now you ask him and he's "good with all that he's done" and says "I've broken all the records I set myself out to do".Last edited by spinaltap; Aug 18, 2017, 11:14 AM.
