He also hit a lot more good shots and his swing did look better. You still have to make the putts to post a good score and lately Tiger has been missing the one's he used to make and today he made them. What good is having a nice looking swing and missing putt after putt on the Tour.
Flip Flap Flub......Tiger can't pitch with that club.
I still am in shock on how poorly he is playing shots from around the greens. Some shots look like an 18 handicapper. Flubs plain and simple. His speed control is awful with his putting......changing putters too often. Lost his feel for the ball coming off the face of the putter. Too bad, he really could have been good at this game.........
I know Brian mentioned that its too early to judge all of Tiger's swing changes and he's probably right. But one thing is for sure, you would need to have an ego the size of Texas to tell Tiger he needed to changed the way he chipped and pitched the ball. Foley convinced him to change so that he released every club (even his putter) in the same manner. It's been said, several times, by players and commentators that Sean has told Tiger to watch Hunter Mahan, watch Hunter Mahan, he does it right.
Hunter is quite the ball striker, but Seve he is not.
