The Englishman stumbled on the back nine on Thursday (5-over 40) but played the back side at 8-under over the final three days. It’s easy to play the what-if game but if he’d just played that inward nine at even-par on Thursday, he could have been lifting the trophy this week. Instead, he’ll settle for T4 which is his best finish on the PGA TOUR since the 2020 Honda Classic (3rd place). “I’m not losing my ball, started driving it better now, especially the second half of the year. Had some tournaments where I felt like my driver’s been much more consistent and that was something that in my best years driving and my iron play was clearly where I made like my biggest strides to compete at the highest level.” While his confidence with the driver is returning, it was his short game that got the job done this week (+4.1 strokes gained around the green and +4.1 strokes gained putting).
