Really? It's so funny how things work out. I'm friends with guys who played with him on the mini-tours when he first started out (think 2-3 years after the million dollar hole-in-one) and they said he couldn't play dead out there. Lots of 78s and scores around 80. They said he was pretty good and had some potential, but you'd have never thought he'd make it.
Now, PGA Tour winner and #1 in ballstriking 2010...
Well, his putting is atrocious by PGA Tour standards.
Sometimes that stuff happens. Azinger was pretty much a joke when he came into Florida State. Ken Green couldn't make a good D-III team.
My team had a kid from Canada who couldn't break 85 and then one semester later he wouldn't shoot over 75 regardless of the conditions and made some money on the Canadian Tour after he graduated.
It's more the exception to the rule, but there's plenty of golfers out there that if they can find that one thing it can make a world of difference in their play.
