Exactly! The 3rd round that year was amazing, he shot a 62. However, I’ve noticed he sometimes struggles on Sunday. Thoughts?

That’s true! I think his short game has matured, which is key to succeeding at Pebble Beach.

Right! Imagine hitting a drive into the 18th in high winds… might as well toss a coin!

Absolutely! His shot shaping is impressive. I remember watching him use his 3-wood off the tee at the last tournament to navigate tight fairways. It really fits the course’s needs.

I like how Tony uses a mix of clubs to tackle different holes. His strategy often involves distance control; I’d love to see how he handles those long par 3s!
