His game is his driver, not his putter.

Agree. Additionally, he sure is hard to like.

Actually, according to his fellow tour pros, he's a pretty good putter

They all are "pretty good putter" at that level, better than pretty good.

Putts are missed because of speed or direction. I think his speed was fine, but his direction was off.

He is actually a very nice guy when not working. He never turns down a kid who wants an autograph or picture during a practice round, which explains why he has had Covid a couple of times. Don’t be misled by his intensity during rounds that count toward his profession.

At 1.5 putts average for the tournament and with almost 77% GIR, I'd say he was pretty much dead on. He had a few clutch putts in the playoff holes, Cantlay also, the last was nerves I think.

I admit, my only impression is during tournament play. Didn’t know about the openness and interaction during non-tournament time. I’ll reevaluate my opinion of him.

IMO the better question is How in the hell did Cantlay make those putts??? A GREAT playoff. Loved every minute.
