Ben Griffin To Keep Momentum Going At Cognizant Classic
1 min agoAfter a few events of frustratingly poor results with positive metrics, Ben Griffin put everything together for a solid T4 finish in Mexico last week. Ranking third in the field in strokes gained on approach (+1.48), and inside the top 20 for strokes gained around the green (+0.64) and putting (+0.79). The former UNC golfer ranks better with the longer irons in his bag, so it will be interesting to see how his game changes back to a shorter course with much less room for error. The work on the greens is by-far the worst metric this season for the 28-year-old, ranking 114th in strokes gained putting (-0.149). It was luckily much improved last week at Vidanta Vallarta, and being on similar feel for the next several weeks will hopefully mean big things for Griffin if the ball striking form remains.
