But the last two years, he seems to have unraveled its mysteries, at least to the point where he\u2019s now competitive. He tied for ninth in 2024, shooting even par. It\u2019s his best result here. He followed with a tie for 14th last year, the 3-under total his lowest to par.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMy results have got better the last few years, which is nice,\u201d he said. \u201cYeah, there’s spots around the golf course that are very difficult. I don’t shy away from saying things, so yeah, that’s just how I am, and I won’t change. \u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt felt like a bit of a surprise I actually got it to 7-under around this golf course with how I’ve previously struggled. I was obviously enjoying it. It was nice to be at that score and not hacking it round and over par like I generally do around here. Nice for a change.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Asked why his results have improved, he replied: \u201cThe last few years I’ve generally driven the ball much better here, which has been great. Yes, you kind of know where you can and can’t miss, but it’s also, like, you need to try and play your own game.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThere were too many times in the first few years where you watch it on TV as a kid, you kind of, oh, if you hit it there to that pin, it sort of feeds in. So then when you try to hit it to the slope rather than being naturally if you are more of an aggressive player, which most of the time I am, I would hit more towards the pin. But now I was aiming at slope, and I pulled it and missed the slope, and then you end up in a whole world of trouble.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"But the last two years, he seems to have unraveled its mysteries, at least to the point where…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":595608,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[443],"tags":[49,48,622,82],"class_list":["post-595607","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-golf","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-golf","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595607","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=595607"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/595607\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/595608"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=595607"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=595607"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=595607"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
