The Grinder Of Pars (Semi Crocked)
Xander Schufele had his driver tested on Tuesday at The Open....and it fails the CT test so is too hot and therefore illegal.
Apparently there were other brands that failed as well.
Titleist and Srixon confirmed none of their clubs had failed.
The CT test measure the time the ball is in contact with the face. There is a tolerance of 17 points.
Xander's Epic Flash was 1 point over the tolerance.
Not a big deal admittedly but it's over the limit so it's out.
But how long has he had this club in his bag?
R&A tested 30 from the 156 players....to get 3 or 4 failing is, I think, quite surprising given the supposed accuracy of manufacture
