Whats happened to him? From a guy who was tipped to challenge Tiger, best young golfer with a super swing to an also ran in 3 seasons!

Is it a case of too much money in golf and hes lost his will to win, sitting making a comfortable living from making cuts?

(he'll probably win the Masters now that I've said this!)

Too busy making easy money, has lost the drive to win. Classic case of a guy with a perfect swing but not the required mental fortitude to go with it imo.
All I can remember him winning is the TPC about 3 years ago, he managed to dunk his second in the water on teh 72nd I think but scrambled a bogey to win. That's it I think.

I said at the time and i'll say it now, he'll never amount to f****ll Adam Scott.

You can see he has no desire whatsoever to win anything, still, he's taking home his millions every year so i dare say he's not too fussed.

I agree with the statement but not because of his attitude. I suspect Butch Harmon wouldn't be wasting his time with him if that was the case. His putting simply isn't good enough, and it doesn't matter how good a swing you've got if you can't putt - as Sergio will testify.

I still think he has a chance, his last season was wrecked by injury I believe.

So if he can get back into the groove there could well be a big win him somewhere.

He`s missed the cut in his last 3 outings, I know because I picked him in my Fantasy team for all of them. He did win one of the tournaments on the winter tour though, and was still my 4th highest points scorer behind Garcia, Perry, Goosen & Ogilvy, despite letting me down gig time towards the end.

My missus hopes he turns good again, she has a crush on him.
