WHAT THE STATS SAY<\/p>\n
Strengths: Mu\u00f1oz\u2019 greatest strength in 2025 was his approach play. Strokes Gained: Approach is often the most important indicator of who is in form from week to week, and Munoz consistently gave himself birdie chances with his stellar iron game. He ranked 2nd in the league in Strokes Gained: Approach and was particularly dangerous with a wedge in his hand from 150 yards and in, where he also ranked 2nd.<\/p>\n
Mu\u00f1oz ranked 10th in the league in Strokes Gained: Off the Tee, which was due in large part to his driving accuracy rather than his driving distance. His ability to hit fairways while being one of the best iron players in the league paved the way for his breakout season.<\/p>\n
After reaching the green with remarkable efficiency on a regular basis, Mu\u00f1oz also had a strong season with the putter, ranking 15th in Strokes Gained: Putting.<\/p>\n
Weaknesses: Mu\u00f1oz ranked in the bottom half of the league in Strokes Gained: Approach (28th). Due to his 5th place ranking in Green in Regulation percentage, he didn\u2019t have to rely much on his around the green play. However, if his ball striking isn\u2019t quite as spectacular in 2026, he\u2019ll need to improve in this area.<\/p>\n
Mu\u00f1oz was poor with his long irons (225+ yards) and ranked 43rd in Strokes Gained: Approach from that distance, losing 0.12 strokes to the field per round on average. He was able to take advantage of the shorter courses utilized by LIV Golf but will need to improve his long iron play if he\u2019s to compete at some of LIV Golf\u2019s most difficult tests.<\/p>\n
