The contenders from the 2017 US PGA – Justin Thomas, Patrick Reed, Hideki Matsuyama and Louis Oosthuizen – are among the favourites this week, and one of them will likely flourish. But, on the whole, history paints an ominous forecast.
A final-green bomb from Brian Harman has denied world No.1 Dustin Johnson a fourth straight US PGA Tour title at the Wells Fargo Championship in North Carolina.
Harman used a TaylorMade’s Spider OS CB putter – a counterbalanced model similar to the putter he used while employing a belly style of putting prior to the ban starting January 1, 2016.
Dustin Johnson insisted he was back to full strength this week from the staircase incident during the Masters. However, the No.1 player in the world admitted the injury kept him from practising while on the sidelines.
