Strange that they're both such good ballstrikers tho eh?  With that difficult move I mean.  I think a few years ago (pre-swing changes) Sergio was #1 in GIR or #1 in total driving or something...he might have even been #1 in both.
		
		
	 
Pradoxically, Sergio's GIR has improved dramatically following his swing changes (which I thought he worked on with his father, not Lead), although his total driving stats have deteriorated.
